Start at the main trail for mount olympus in Salt Lake City. Ascend to the peak and follow the ridge all the way back to the connect to the crest trail above desolation lake. Take the crest north to Murdock peak and then go west on the ridge all the way to Grandeur peak. Descend Grandeur via the west face trail.  

The Panhandle Trail offers the most direct and scenic route for self-propelled travel between Oakdale (Allegheny County) and Colliers, West Virginia with the majority of the trail's length spanning Northern Washington County. Although the trail follows an old railroad grade through the hilly terrain, there was only so much the railroad builders could do to flatten the route. Expect a steady climb to the town of Midway, the high point on the rural journey.

Starting on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in Menton, this South-to-North crossing of the French Alps follows the legendary “Grande Traversée des Alpes” but with a unique twist. Instead of taking the classic GR 5 from the start, the route begins with the wilder and more mountainous GR 52, plunging deep into the heart of Mercantour National Park — a land of ibex, chamois, and rock engravings in the ancient Vallée des Merveilles.

Le mont Buet en traversée : montée par la voie normale puis descente par les arêtes nord. Montée au Cheval Blanc, traversée pour rejoindre le col des corbeaux et descente par le vallon de Tré les Eaux.
