  • Climbed Capitol via the standard route from west Sowmass creek, Soloed "Satans Ridge" staying direct all the way through the gendarme section to Snowmass, left Snowmass at 9 hours 30 minutes and climbed the Hagerman traverse arriving at the summit of Hagerman at 10 hours 15 minutes. Descended the South ridge of Hagerman to Trailrider pass and ran out Snowmass creek. 14 hours 54 minutes car to car.

    My name is Mike. I was on the trip across Satan's Ridge in 2010 with Steve, Noah, Kiefer, and myself. The carabineer you saw with the blue tape on it (when you said it was wild ppl rapped off of the pin) is mine.
    You did it in style! Fantastic video. Makes me wanna go back.

      Crazy I just finished reading your trip report and it made me want to watch this route again. Then yours is the first comment I see.

    There’s a reason this isn’t the fifth great 14er traverse. Stout work sending it free and solo. After hearing stories about the exposure it was nice to actually see it. Thanks for putting it online.
