WOW! The Wasatch Over Wasatch Trail was a wild ride indeed. This compilation summarizes two Wasatch Range day trips:

June 29th Loop Hike
A drizzly morning was not enough to keep Christy and me off the trail earlier this week for a short day hike before work on the following route in Summit Park, UT:
Short Stack to Over Easy to Road to Wos

Wasatch Over Wasatch ride on July 4th
We enjoyed a degree of shuttle assisted independence on the WOW before work while testing out a newly acquired 29” hardtail and Santa Cruz Tall Boy.

$S6 E12 Mt Raymond Circumnavigation, Wasatch Range, Utah June 2018 Mt Raymond is slightly lower than its popular neighbor, Gobblers Knob, but it is more fun to climb and worthy for circumnavigation. The angular peak rises from the apex of three weathered limestone ridges that come together at roughly equal angles on the eastern side of the Mount Olympus Wilderness Area. There are a variety of trailhead options to approach Mt Raymond. For this loop, started on the Porter Fork Trail, connected with the Desolation trail and returned on the Bowman Fork Trail. The approach to Mount Raymond climbs steadily up the grassy ridge from Baker Pass for 0.5 miles, but then seems to disappear at the base of a badly fractured knife-edge ridge of quartzite. Proceed straight up the crest of the ridge. Although you will need both hands, the climb along the knife-edge is not nearly as bad as it looks. Furthermore, this is the worst part of the climb. Beyond the knife-edge there is more minor scrambling, with bits and pieces of the trail visible. It is easiest if you stay right on the crest of the ridge. Within another ten to fifteen minutes you should be at the top.
