The perfect way to escape the heat of the plains , a pleasant ridgewalk with a nice breeze , expansive views and good company. By starting at the Sacramento pull out not only we saved 200 m of elevation and a few km of mundane walking but we were in open country in about 30 minutes.Leaving the trail at the pass we ascended the outlier before continuing to the main ridge.After a long and relaxed lunch we followed the ridge and eventually dropped down on a good path to the col and the main trail. Back at the cars at 2:45.
