Description

The pictures speak for themselves...this ridge is simply incredible!

The route starts at the Brünigpass rail station and ends at Interlaken Ost rail station. Typically Swiss, it is possible to travel to and from the start and finish by train. And the start and finish are clearly defined. From the Brünigpass there are various routes to the highest peak of the route, the Brienzer Rothorn. But the defined route is rather the fastest and most beautiful. 

South Grand Hogback Traverse (CO)

Description

This is a 20-mile link-up of the southern end of the Grand Hogback, a 75-mile ridgeline that spans from Meeker, CO to Glenwood Springs, CO. The Southern Grand Hogback Traverse begins at the natural demarcation of the Grand Hogback, where I-70 splits the range. The route is essentially entirely off-trail and involves significant bushwacking and navigation. 
The .gpx file went through a gun range; skirt that by following 'trails' around it.
