Submitted by Ron Winsett:

Ridge traverse Including Agassiz, Spread Eagle, Lamotte, A-1, Kletting, and Hayden Peak as a loop, starting and ending at Hayden Pass.

Why?  I have been hiking those mountains for over 10 years linking them up, finding the way to make it a loop.  I completed the loop six years ago in a 2 day stretch, and swore I would never do it again.

It’s a system of trails, fire roads and mule track that connects the lower alpine zone of Campogrosso to the plain of Vicenza. The intended use was to guarantee safe passage of troops and military supplies from the plain base to the front.
After almost a century, Ortogonale 1 is a permanent route of almost 50k and is accessible by mountain/gravel bike and by feet all year long.
