"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

Love the Cimarron!Dessert after Coxcomb & Redcliff. Dropped way down off ridge; the traverse from Redcliff looks quite gnarly. Encountered some of the scariest class 2 scree/talus I've ever experienced up high.

Two-ferClimbed Fortress then climbed Precipice on the way back to campe. We actually went all the way back down to the trailhead after being forced to turn back on the connecting ridge due to icy difficulties, that may or may not "go" when dry.
