Opal Ridge- North Peak Scramble on 13-Jul-2026
Participants: Sim, Bill, Jack, Chip, Pam, Marianne, Nathalie, Matthew
One of those days when everything synchronizes to become a beautifully effortless and enjoyable trip. Interesting conversations, similarly paced group, perfect weather and no bugs! What more could my Rambler heart long for?? Thanks everyone for joining me today, and to Chip and Bill for taking and sharing photos. Stats, thanks to Jack: 9.3 km, 943 m, 5.75 hours including a wonderfully leisurely lunch break.
Bighorn sheep who reluctantly moved off the trail for us (thank you, trail guardians).
Seven Ramblers in a row (minus Bill, the photographer)

Eventually we had to leave our ridge top lunch view and return to the shady forest
