Nine Fine Gentlemen on Mountain Spring Peak
Mike OC brings us the narrative and Richard N. contributed the photos of today's Mountain Spring Peak hike. The scheduled coordinator could not attend the hike, therefore, the nine participants enjoyed the day together with a bit of freedom to wander where they wanted at the top of the Red Rock Canyon NCA escarpment.
The affair: Thursday ABF trek
Primary destination: Mountain Springs Peak
Secondary destination: La Ventana (The window)
The route: Up Heart Attack Hill; scramble down
The pace: Brutal
The cast: Nine Fine Gentlemen
Number of hike coordinators: Nine
The weather: Nose-dripping cold, blustery
Katabatic winds on the ridge line
The attire: Fully layered (except for Ed)
The consensus: Superb outing
The denouement: All smiles
