11 miles of hiking • 4000' elevation gain •
Decided to shake off the post-Superbowl blahs with a long gorge hike. Starting at the powerlines, I started up Cedar Creek. Using the trail along the west side of Aldrich Butte, I eventually crossed the creek, climbing and following Cedar Mountain until reaching the PCT. From there I took the west side trail to TM summit. The gale force winds made the trail along the cliffs more dangerous than usual but the summit was not so bad. From TM, I took the trail north to the powerlines, picked up the PCT, and returned making a figure eight for the day.
