  • Winter is fInally loosening it's icy grip on Colorado's 14ers and we took full advantage Hiking and Skiing Quandary Peaks friendly Class 1 East Ridge route on a warm, low wind, blue bird day! Near the Breckenridge ski resort, this is one of the most popular winter and summer routes of all the Colorado 14ers and for good reason. Avalanche risk is almost non existent in winter unless there are extreme conditions, generally only found during winter proper, and summer ascents are steep class 1 hiking only with obvious route finding. It does get crowded in the summer, parking by reservation only but, Breckinridge does offer a summer shuttle service from downtown. This is a great introductory 14er but, proper training and weather awareness are still required! Winter ascents do not require parking reservations and are best done on low wind days and using micro spikes or snowshoes/skis if fresh snow is suspected.

Be careful, as you know my trips can get a little “exciting!” I love the Ryan Road trip app if you want great beta including gps.maps that show you exactly where you are offline. Makes things way easier and less stressful. Especially in desert canyons where you can’t see shit,lol. Let me know what you think! Stegosaurus was super gnarly fyi.

    Great winter 14er summit. The snow condition seems average for skiing though. Saw much better condition on James Peak last year around this time. Personally I hate the idea of lugging my skis up that high. Did snowcat skiing at Loveland last week which was much easier :)

    • @KarlDeckerPresents
      @KarlDeckerPresents  2 роки тому +1

      I'd definitely agree, crazy how you can read my mind, looking at St Mary's and James soon and similar situation. Thin cover. I do have a light weight rig and it is very useful for soft snow VS about anything else, really helped me zip down the slush for the last 1/3 of the descent but. . . over all, I do think I could have actually done it easier/quicker with micro spikes assuming I got down before too much thawing. . .Personally, I'm ready for some steep dry rock! this trip was great though, rarely climb stuff with others around and hanging out with them was fun!

      Huge thanks Elise, that was a Mavic air 2s drone but a new tiny drone is about to come out, Mini 3. Could be perfect for you guys. I'll research it when it arrives and let you know what I learn. They definitely get some super cool shots, a PITA, and somewhat nerve wracking to fly but I think it's still my favorite camera. I'm excited. . . !

      It was a very dry low snow pack early April adventure..I would guess it’s good to go now just do you best to avoid a real windy day..Minimal avy danger on that route.
