Lost Ridge RRG directions, help!
|
Can anybody help with directions? I tried to find this and was unsuccessful, all the directions reference a river and stream that have been moved, and the coordinates and map on here put it where the book puts Board Wall, so I can't even plug in GPS coordinate and bushwhack to it. Any help, please? |

Dude holy shit that place is hard to find. It took me 3-4 hours, and a great amount of bushwhaking. Honestly, try to go up there with someone who has already gone up there. I'll try to give you some directions, but you gotta know that the "trail" becomes non-existent and there aren't good landmarks. |

thomas, Those directions arn't very helpful, nothing is where it used to be. |

That's just the way she goes. It sounds like you were on the right track. The creek splits and comes back to together a couple times it seems. You probably just needed to continue farther and hike up hill left at the cairn/whenever. You can't see the cliffline through the trees but it's not too far up there. |

From the map and google earth I don't think it splits at all beyond the two actually. Anyway, I will just have to go try again, thanks again Ben. |

Hiked up there yesterday. The directions are so confusing because they take you to two totally different parts of the wall at least a half mile away from each other but they are still pretty accurate if you are familiar with that area. With a little persistence I was able to find what I was looking for. Paid really close attention on the hike out and realized that it is actually petty easy to get up there and I was just making things hard on myself. Are you local? It'd be much easier to describe in person...also have GPS coordinates.... |
