I started right around 07:00 am at the Leland Creek Trailhead and ran the Saint Louis Ridge Traverse in the counter-clockwise direction, climbing first towards Byers Peak and Bills Peak. While refilling water at the pass after the descent from Saint Louis Peak, the rain picked up more intensely. I took a break to recoup and gear up under tree cover. From there, I made my way up to the last named peak, Mount Nystrom, followed by a few more unnamed climbs until I reached the downhill switchbacks back to the trailhead.
I ran the entire route alone, didn’t resupply any food, and refilled water from natural sources.
