This is a 44 mile loop through the Center of the main Sawtooth Wilderness range. It's true back country rugged. On my journey there were a lot of obstacles. There was constant deadfall from mile 5 - 12. Even though this was July 4th, I was in and out of snow for about 5 hours. Many large snow fields requiring slow trail finding routes to/from ridges. I carried all of my own fuel and refilled with water out on the course. The Sawtooth's are full of spring water and snow melt which was delicious! My girlfriend ran in reverse and followed me to the finish for the final 12 miles.
Directions: This is a clockwise loop. Starting at the Redfish trail head you go to Hell Roaring lake to Imogene lake to Edith lake over Sand Mountain pass to Rendezvous lake to Edna lake to Ardeth lake through the 10 lake basin up to Hidden Lake, up over the Cramer divide to the Cramer lakes down the Redfish-Baron drainage back to the Redfish trail head.
