R2R advice
Hiking R2R with some girlfriends in mid-September. We managed to get a reservation at phantom ranch for one night. We are headed north to south (N Kaibob to BA) with overnight at phantom ranch. We are very capable hikers and have completed numerous 14ers here in Colorado where we live. I personally have summited 13 unique 14ers, 17 in total with repeats.
However, we are not accustomed to going down first, then up. I am also somewhat worried about the heat. The hiking I think I can do, like I said I’ve done a bunch of 14ers and I’m also a marathon runner. I’m in pretty good cardio shape. But man that heat scares me. There’s nothing I love more than a run in the low 30s which is the exact opposite of R2R.
Please share your best advice and tip for dealing with heat, or anything else for a successful R2R!!
