Cowichan Valley 5 Crown: Running all 5 summits in the Cowichan Valley and closing the loop. The summits are: Mount Tzouhalem, Mount Prevost, Mount Sicker, Richards Mountain & Maple Mountain. This route was first addressed to me from my boyfriend who is a professional mountain biker and this is a famous route for those who are up for the challenge to complete on bike! the goal is to go up and over all of the summits in a single day. After being apart of their biking adventures I thought to myself, why not bring my running passion to play and conquer this beast on my own 2 feet!

Description

Over the last several years the Saber Ridge traverse (5.7-8) became a new High Sierra classic. At this point, it isn't just compared to Matthes Crest due to its quality rock and sustained exposure on the sharp ridge, a lot of climbers claim it to be better. The rock is stellar from the bottom to the top and a lot of the ridge is covered in knobs and chicken heads. The approach starts at Crescent Meadow in Sequoia National Park and takes the High Sierra Trail for just over 11 miles, till it forks up towards the Elizabeth Pass and then takes another turn towards Tamarack Lake.
