9.5 miles of hiking • 4000' elevation gain •

Looked for an anonymous ridge off Eagle Creek for some offtrail hiking and found one south of Sorenson Creek so I'm calling it Sorenson Ridge. A marvelous ridge, no brush, clear all the way up to the Benson Platter but I'll have to make another visit as there are views but today all openings were pretty much socked in. Gains 3200' in around 1.75 miles, unrelenting steepness on a narrow, easy to follow ridgeline. Very wet.

Looks like a great one to add to in the Eagle Creek drainage. There are three ridges between Ruckel Ridge and Benson Cutoff Trail that look enticing, this being one of them. The next most desirable one being around High Bridge. Thanks for the report.
