Terminus of a 5 peak out and back tour starting at Parnassus (Watrous Gulch)
From Robeson, made quick work of these as a shake down for next week's Leadville trail 100 run. Headed back to Parnassus, then hit Woods (extra credit) before calling it a day since the weather was good.
Do not take the path you might see heading off to the right, just before you would cross the creek, at the mine tailing. It actually leads to a big nice flat private meadow, but not to the summits. Instead cross the creek and quickly move up the slope into the forest, then uphill to tree line.

From Urad
From Avy gate sign. Up road stayed left at fork in road. From end of road went up gully and stayed left ( right goes to saddle with Robeson). Hit summit and traversed to Robeson then down the chute from the saddle.

From Urad Mine
Parked near gated 4wd road just past the mine. Went up the 4wd road a couple hundred feet to a weather station and then cut up through the trees and followed the ridge to the summit. Didn't seem too horribly steep this way. Continued to Robeson. Came down the avalanche chute from Robeson/Engelmann saddle; FAST descent with many glissade opportunities.

Ruby Creek Mega-Traverse
Meetup.com hike with Leonard and Bernice, and Leonard's dog, Maya. We got Engelmann first, then got Robeson, Bard, Parnassus and Woods. It was a beautiful day: crystal clear skies, breezy and chilly but not horrible.

Windy combo with Bard and Parnassus from the Urad Mine gate. Climbed with Floyd and Lordhelmut, then we went to pig out at Smokin' Yards BBQ in Idaho Springs... a well earned meal.
Mike's so fast, he can climb in the future (Oct 29 2012???) Dang!

Ruby loop w/o the loop

Senad was gracious enough not to post photos of the full-body post holing we were doing!!! Great day, windy, but sunny. I could have done without the body-snatcher snow in the trees, but...that's Springtime in the Rockies!
