Sheep Gulch  Sucess!

I was able to hike Quail mountain a week after I backed off the traverse from Hope. Was really itching to complete the duo. After an afternoon of bad weather and hanging out in Leadville, the clouds started to clear and I made my way to the trailhead. Made the trip to the summit and back in two hours and twenty-eight minutes. What a great weekend!

A good fall day  Sucess!

I had great weather and enjoyed the summit of Quail. It has one of the most weathered log cabins I've ever seen, all the logs are bleached and smooth, quite impressive.

Camped near Colorado Trail near Vicksburg. Elk walked through camp near dusk. Coyotes sang in the night. A steep climb to the Hope/Quail saddle and an easy ascent of the West Face. Windy.

Approached from Sheep Gulch. Very fun hike. Still a lot of lingering snow patches up to Hope Pass along the trail, but everything was consolidated.

Fun mountain, especially in addition to Mount Hope. Great views and lots of wildlife. Had to avoid south slopes below Hope Pass, however: still way too much snow. The west slopes of Quail Mountain were completely bare.
