McCurdy Mountain

Yesterday, I went on a long sixteen mile hike with 4,300 feet elevation gain to the top of McCurdy Mountain, led by Denise Snow, who is leading the Switzerland trip in August.  The highlight of the trip was the long traverse above treeline below Bison Peak and McCurdy Mountain, including a short climb from the trail to the top of the mountain.  Along the traverse were the fantastic granite forms, the natural abstract sculptures, so characteristic of the Lost Creek Wilderness.  The distant views were to the high peaks across South Park.
