But who am I to complain?! I picked these trails specifically because I would be running alone and didn't want to surprise any bears. So, mission accomplished! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525199917655-NOY6LZX63MR8P9U4UO4E/IMG_20180429_114954.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Continue on the Ute Trail as long as it keeps climbing, but to tag the unmarked summit, before Ute Trail starts to descend, head off-trail to the left to the highest point you can find (Trail Run Project helpfully referred to a "molar-shaped boulder" which did seem to be the highest point around). I snapped a photo here, but perhaps this was the wrong molar-shaped boulder? I've also come across some sources that say Flagstaff Mountain's summit is 6,983', and others stating 7,283'. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525195619390-TYLZOCR4W2CB2DC7Z2JQ/IMG_20180429_090757.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) After a rocky scramble up the side of South Boulder Peak, tag the summit (8,549' -- the tallest of the Traverse) and enjoy the view over Boulder to the east... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525203959395-6NTJ3MGCNODEY9G7HF8H/IMG_20180429_141243.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) WHOO HOO! Mt. Sanitas, at 6,843', is the lowest of the five summits, but felt SO good to complete. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525200153506-WI8M7QFFV270Q0S8SK9W/IMG_20180429_115311.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Either way, while Flagstaff's actual summit isn't that awesome; definitely take in the views to the west... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525200184797-YVZWQC8PE5IBAE145E8W/IMG_20180429_120954.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) ...and to the east, as you descend the Ute Trail, then the Flagstaff Trail. This is the only tricky place on the whole Traverse, navigation-wise, as there are so many bouldering trails cutting off in various directions as you descend. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525195831158-T9G7ZP810982CPUVFEEF/IMG_20180429_080658.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) The Shadow Canyon Trail starts out like a wide, flat fire road, but after crossing the creek, turns into singletrack, and then to rocky scrambling, like this! From the mouth of the canyon, it's just one mile to the saddle... but 1,600' of climbing: one of the steepest climbs in Boulder. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525196209572-3G0990EA3X8HRS6E3G8D/IMG_20180429_091119.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) After tagging the summit, retrace your steps back down this rocky north flank of South Boulder Peak to the trail junction, and continue straight up a few rocky switchbacks toward Bear Peak. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525196866120-WKG0ETIN2KPH9DB6021L/IMG_20180429_093552.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Two down, three to go! Another great view from Bear's summit, this time west toward the Continental Divide. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525197174290-QIZ8VJQIKKQTBSECMCM8/IMG_20180429_103903.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) ...which quickly give way to smooth, runnable singletrack (as seen here.) In retrospect, I might've pushed the pace a bit more through this section, but I ran pretty conservatively all day long, as this was my first time on these trails and I wanted to make sure I'd have the energy to make it up all five peaks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525197303621-XP4RUXFDPYFF3VBYK902/IMG_20180429_104640.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) After a long descent, cross a creek, then after a few strides take a sharp left onto the Green-Bear trail. After some rolling, beautiful miles, the trail dead-ends at this perfectly framed mountain view, where you take a hard right to climb Green Mountain. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525205916374-NF729T08SAV94O9W782K/IMG_20180429_090907.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525193713421-XFJO8UIRFKSCW6ZJBECM/IMG_20180429_073234.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Took a quick look back over my shoulder, downhill toward the trailhead. Amazing how green everything is right now! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525200681430-0B12NP20OFPN0XT9S54Q/IMG_20180429_123439.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Looking north while descending on the Viewpoint Trail from Panorama Point. Soon, I'd be hiking right past the red rock formation in the center of this photo. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525193778153-PJKQ56HUNS6J8YS9CIWC/IMG_20180429_073605.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) I started from the South Mesa Trailhead, and made my way up the Mesa Trail for about 1.5 miles. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525196108514-931WR7BED5QE2BAGKEVD/IMG_20180429_090911.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) The view south is awesome too. I'm not particularly bothered by heights, but the drop-off from the summit is pretty extreme. Step carefully! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525196383485-CQ7BAT0K9FG0BSW6D0WA/IMG_20180429_093544.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) The Bear Peak summit (8,459') looking north. The Flatirons (seen from the side in this photo) and the rest of the Traverse all lie ahead! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525204221284-5UEPJZO1AIXVEQ60GK19/IMG_20180429_141420.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Nice view over Boulder, looking east. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525195212231-QW6K7S2YCKEH8WMIEFX6/IMG_20180429_084908.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) Most of the Shadow Canyon Trail is nicely forested, but the massive Flagstaff Fire in June 2012 left this area toward the top completely burned-out and open. Just beyond where I took this photo (at the trail junction at the saddle), turn left to head up South Boulder Peak. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525195703994-WZ6A94225RMCST3SYX9Z/IMG_20180429_090803.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) ...and the high peaks of the Continental Divide to the west (behind me in this photo). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5971044946c3c4c24a0b351a/1525204151377-HFAU34PM8138LCGY39VG/IMG_20180429_141425.jpg A Crooked Trail or Two - Old Gabe training week 15: Boulder Skyline Traverse (17.8 mi/6,000+ feet of climbing) I had plenty of company on Sanitas' summit.
