First post-Rut slog! Life handed me a gigantic ball of crap last week so my recovery was compromised to say the least. I attempted Superior from Cardiff Pass and got shut out by gigantic clouds (see below). I couldn't find the trail and was scrambling around at a level too difficult for comfort and I bloodied my ankle pretty badly so I bailed only 400 vertical feet from the top. I felt pretty good except my right ankle still feels sort of sprained and my right hamstring feels funky at the fibula attachment point. Other than that I can say The Rut didn't do too much damage!

When I finished my rike, my new Suunto said I went 5 miles, but when I upload it says I went 4.3. It also said I had a 6:26 mile when I know I spent at least 30+  minutes cowering on the ridge and was barely moving grrrrrrrr.

I like that you only pick bad weather days to attempt Superior.

We'll go up and ski it this winter. The best way to descend Superior is with 40 turns worth of face shots, not bloody ankles! :-)
