Report
Kym Sutton and Ethan Campbell completed the Cache Dash Traverse on July 5th 2024 in a clockwise direction. The route was completely snow free except for a couple hundred feet section on the N side of Cache Peak. Ethan ran up via Goodwin Lake Trail couple days before and stashed food + water in a Ursack about 1/3rd of the way through the route on the N rim (43.44709, -110.62421).
The N side ridge traverse was excellent and by far the best part. The S rim traverse involved some thick forest, chossy scrambling, and worst of all, swarms of deer flys that followed us for the last 4 hours. Ethan somehow avoided throwing up in the last couple miles through sheer willpower and Kym's relentless positivity.
