It verged on too hot at Sawtooth Ridge today! Ann and I felt fortunate to find the gate on Forest Road 6 open, and minimal snow on the ground. We relapsed into full summer mode, then remembered the season again when the sun set at 4:30pm.

We repeated two routes at the north end (Hunchy Bunchy Banana Pants 5.6, Pollo del Fuego 5.9), then moseyed over to the far south wall where a couple of routes labeled “unknown” in our book (5.9 and 5.10a) proved worth the walk, if still a little mossy from lack of traffic.
