Broad's Fork Twin Peaks One of the biggest mountains around. I have been up there several times but this was my fastest time up and down. Experimented with a different way up after the beaver pond. Was nice to be on familiar terrain coming down. My most favorite downclimb around here is the ledges on the descent from the Twins to the saddle. Running opens up a lot of possibilities in the mountains. Stuff that a few years ago would take 6 to 8 hours I now get done in half the time. Crossed paths with a moose. He turned and glared at me. No fear in those animals. On the way down the upper bowl a little owl circled me a few times. I wondered if it was going to try to carry me off. Found cheap sunglasses on the way down. I am always finding crap in the mountains. On Lone Peak I found a knit hat and a Patagonia shirt. One of my favorite shirts is a long-sleeve Buffalo Run shirt I found at a trailhead a few years back.
