Incredible ridge scramble with consistently engaging terrain. If I were to repeat it I would definitely try to descend the NW ridge of Volcano Peak to connect with the Old Baldy Trail (assuming that it actually exists) in order to avoid the bushwhack through alder and regrowth in the burn. Finally blew the toe out of my Speedcrosses on the descent after 1800 km, can't say enough good things about these shoes. 

Saw a goat!
