- This is a video of the El Diente Peak to Mt Wilson traverse and from Mt Wilson to Wilson Peak traverse in one day 22 miles, 8500ft gain that took us 13 hrs to finish. Started from kilpacker trailhead at 3:00am to the El Diente south route use microspikes once or twice to cross small snow patches near the top made it to the summit by 7:00am only spend a couple minutes and jumped into the traverse all the information I gathered here helped immensely as we didn't get lost once and stayed right on the route lota of exposure in some areas like the Narrows, and lots of class 3 and class 4 moves but rock stable and solid. Made it to Mt Wilson at 9 am took a 5-minute break as we contemplated what me and climbing partner had talked about of traversing to Wilson Peak as well, it looked very far and very intimidating, but we had weather and time on our side and decided to give it a try. Went down the North route of Mt Wilson to about halfway and traverse below Gladstone peak to its north ridge connecting to Wilson peak traverse below the ridge was very unstable rock I released by mistake a couple big chunks of rock super sketchy terrain eventually we made it to the ridge and rock was more stable but super exposed and many class 3 and 4 moves and no trail orany info to follow because there is none here or anywhere we stayed on ridge as much as possible this was definitely tougher than the el diente/mt wilson traverse. We finally joined the SW route of Wison peak and summit this one at 12:20pm spend 10 minutes here and absorbed everything we had just done and starting heading down as weather was turning. Went down the Navajo basin route and at the end crossover to kilpacker trailhead where my car was at 4:00pm. For GPS route check out my Strava at "the ninja on the mountains".

One of the best days I had on the Mountains!! unforgettable
So, how easy was it to pick out the best route on the El Diente-Mt. Wilson traverse? I note on 14ers.com you said you had gathered a lot of info - can you point me to particular trip reports, by any chance? Driving down tomorrow, hiking into Kilpacker, then hope to do El D>Mt. Wilson on Monday. Thanks. You can email me, too, if you would like: claybonnyman (a) gmail.
Thử thách leo núi thật tuyệt vời Cảm ơn bạn đã chia sẻ 🤝👍
dont know what you said, but thumbs up must be good!! thanks
Omg. Scaling those mountains looks scary 😯 requires courage. The climbing is always tough but the views at the top are so worth it!. Happy 816🤗 all my love from Kenya 🇰🇪
thanks for watching!! funny I was just watching a kenya documentary last night
Very gorgeous view up there but the trail look very scary I glad you guys safe, thanks for sharing +1 like 32
Thanks for watching!!
Everything about this video is great. Camera, music, narrative, editing, information and links provided. I appreciate all the effort you went to to both make these ascents and put a film together to share with us. I did Sneffels a week after you did this and I believe I will NOT be trying these. I'm too old and it above my fear threshold. It's a young man's game and you crushed it. Great Job!
thank you so much for your comment I really appreciate as I worked very hard not only to accomplish it, but to put it on camera. I don't blame you for not trying this traverses they are not for everyone
Wow! What an awesome channel. Amazing video. Great stuff. Well done. Subscribed. Crow✌️
thanks for watching and subbing!
I love all about mountains climbing
me too111, 3 years ago I sold everything I had and completely changed my life so I can be here in the mountains everyday
Omg I would like to do this hike, it’s so cool the only thing is I don’t know how to ice skate
Wow, I got a bit of vertigo just watching this 😱😱⛰⛰ Excellent clip mate !!
Thanks for watching, I was sweating from my hands for hrs edditing this video
Wow, amazing climb! I would be terrified up that high! Your footage is amazing & beautiful editing! I love your channel & just subscribed!
thank you for watching and subbing!
Super cool video, just subbed! Love seeing the mountains in this way
thanks for watching and for the sub got more adventures coming soon
super cool video!! love the views from the summits
Intense would be the best word that comes mind after this climb/hike, lol. Awesome video
Thanks for watching, it was really intense climb for sure requires 100% focus
Epic
Thank you! it was a great day
OMG!!! This looks terrifying!! You are so skilled! I have to cover my eyes at about the halfway mark in the video, I would have been so scared!!
Thank you! it has taken a lot of training to overcome my fear of heights, sometimes we end up falling in love with things we fear
You are so hardcore. Oh hell no!! The elevation gain is intense~all those rocks you kept grabbing looked like they were going to come down crashing. so beautiful!!! One of the reasons I love your channel so much is because I know I could never do what you do. Your filming is so good that I feel like I am there with you. Awesome!!
the first traverse the rock was pretty solid and although intimidating has good holds, the second was pretty loose had to test every rock before putting all your weight luckly wasn't as long, Thanks for watching I have a couple more traverses like this to do before the end of the summer
@@Theninjaonthemountains I look forward to seeing them.... just please be safe my friend!!!
This is really impressive! Way to go. I also love the filming you feel, you give a good view on how narrow and steep that ridge is!
the camera makes it look a little narrower and steeper than it actually is because is a round lens, but i did try to catch must important areas of the traverse
Awesome views!! Stay safe!
Thanks! Will do!
Did all 3 but on different days. Did Wilson Jr and Sr from Rock of Ages. Diente from Kilpacker. Nice work!
thanks, you too! those mountains are no joke
wow epic!!! looks adventurous and dangerous! what a view from the top!!! new friend here :D
Thank you!! yes it was, I am always chasing that view
bro watching this makes my stomach want to leave my body lmao youre an absolute fucking beast bro
lol, wasn't easy to edit my hands were sweating the whole time watching it I couldn't believe what I had just done
Getting brave with it
This is what I was training for all winter many hours spent at the gym climbing has given me confidence to attemp this things
The ninja on the mountains I was thinking the same thing this is what you train for
@@marcosotero2204 was scared but confident of my grip amd technique
That is one helluva day!! How was route finding from Mt Wilson to Wilson Peak?
the hardest part was gainning abck to the ridge rock was really unstable I and loose once on ridge I followed the ridge as much as possibly because rock was solid few areas had to go around right or east side
Nicely done! Congratulations, and great video! Curious why you chose Kilpacker approach vs. Navajo or Rock of Ages? Are there any benefits?
I figured it was the shortest approach and since we were thinking of doing all 3 from the beginning and you can make it a loop coming down navajo and cutting across to kilpacker again there was a little gain there at the end, but not too bad
Excellent work fellas. I'd like to do this route. Can you tell me how you had your camera set up? I have a go pro and I think it came with a helmet mount. But seems you had the camera zooming in from different angles. I'm pretty sure this wasn't a drone, but also doesnt look like it was mounted to the same place in your helmet. Really really awesome video.
Thank you! is an excellent route! I use a 360 camera thats how i am able to get those angles. I put a link to it under description
great video guys! I'm doing all the San Juan 14ers next week and this trio (besides for the 4 in the Chicago Basin) is probably the toughest day hike. Was the descent off Mount Wilson pretty straightforward down to Navajo basin? I plan on going up Kilpacker like you guys, hitting El D, traversing, then dropping down off Mount Wilson then up the southwest ridge route for Wilson peak, then back Navajo
yes, decent from mt wilson is pretty straight foward, most dangerous part is traversing around gladstone lots of loose scree. I agree I gotta go back to chicagi basin and I m dreading approach last time I did it from purgatory on bike and it was one long day was only able to tag 2 of 4
@@Theninjaonthemountains Well so my plan was just to descend Mount Wilson the "standard way" and then regain the elevation up to Wilson Peak. I didn't realize going on the ridge up/around Gladstone was the way to do it. I realize that way you don't lose/regain as much but seems like it might be sketchier?
When did you do this? Was this last week?
this was 2 weeks ago, june 28
Hard pass on these mountains; I can barely handle a little incline when I run! You sir are an absolute animal. Is your adrenaline running the whole time you're on the mountains?
Is not easy at all I used to be afraid of heights, but like goggins says you gotta do what you hate the most to get better at it and callus the minds. such adrenaline rush up there I can ride it for days. This particular climb we drove 6.5 hrs to get there only slept 1 hr and after a long day hike drove back the 6.5 hrs because of the adrenaline high alone.
Hey Ninja,
Thinking about snow conditions in mid June this year. What Month/year was this filmed in?
this was filmed 2nd or 3 week of June, is starting to melt out there. I think most of route should be clear, but I would wait another couple weeks better
Rlly well filmed . Good info. Just one gripe w the vid w be the music man, nice to here the wind + everyone has different music taste . Just my opinion tho. Good stuff!
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback
