- We made the summit late fall 2017. A rewarding but very challenging hike. Over 6 miles round trip, with steep trails rock scaling and rock climbing.
Nice video.tnxs.I have to wonder if any pioneer boys,girls crossed the valley and ventured up this old mtn.If so,probably no trails.I hiked the face when younger and crazy.Saw a dead horse which had fallen off the top area.1978-79.And slid down a long snow field.
I remember doing this at 14, 15 ,16 years old. Some scout friends and I made it up in 2 and a half hours, down in 45 minutes. Yes, we pretty much jogged the whole way down. Now I don't think I could make it one third of the way up lol. Ahhh, youth......
I definitely can’t do it at that speed anymore lol
Cardiac Hill used to be such a killer it masked how long and steep that hike up through the evergreens really is. That bitch goes on FOREVER. Now, with the switchbacks on Cardiac Hill, I'd call the evergreens the "crux" of the hike. The scramble up the summit isn't a big deal....unless you get off the path. Then you risk getting cliffed out if you're a beginner.
Just made it up last week. What an amazing challenge.
It’s a tough but rewarding hike.
I keep telling myself one day I'll do it. It looks so amazing up there from the valley
just did it january 15 in sneakers, unprepared from massachusetts but made it to the summit and slid about 1/4 of the way down
Its just crazy, The winter here has been so lite, What did you think of it?
Explore Utah super rad hike!! the views are killer and had the summit to myself! would do again next time i visit
Tosh Hosk hit us up and we’ll come with you
I did that too. When I was young and crazy. It's a steep bitch. They've added switchbacks to Cardiac Hill since I used to do it.
I loved this trail! Definitely shredded my legs though!
You aren’t the only one lol...rough on my knees.
The weird thing I don't remember the rock at the top being anything. That scrambling was incidental. If I made it that high everything else seemed easy. But looking at your video it's obviously a bit nasty.
I think it depends on skill, I’m not much of a rock climber so it seemed a bit scary to me, but I’m sure seasoned climbers would roll their eyes
Fantastic video!!! (Says the featured Aussie in the green hat)
Ha you guys were great fun to run into!!! Thanks for letting me film you guys!
