At 9665 feet, Sacagawea Peak is the highest peak in the Bridger Range.
Last week, Anders, Finn and I hiked it. By all standards, its an easy trek, just 2.2 miles each way, through pine forest, alpine tundra and scree fields to the top. But, its all uphill.
Anders hiked all the way to the top and Finn hiked about half of it. A big win for both (and me, since I get to carry Finn).
It was crazy windy, but otherwise the weather was perfect.
