Mt. Hale via Zealand Rd, Hale Brk Tr Trail Report

Posted on Sunday, February 7, 2010 by Mike Buchholz

I was the only one on the trail today; maybe because it was Super Bowl Sunday? Cold and windy?  Or maybe just no one was in the mood today to add the extra six miles necessary to hike this mountain in the winter.  Didn’t really take the camera out much–in the clouds all day with lots of blowing snow and no views.  Decided to just enjoy the serenity of the hike.  10 miles / 4hrs 45min.

Lessons Learned on the Trail Today:
1.) Get more than 4 hours of sleep before hiking unless you want even the car ride to the mountain to be physically exhausting.
2.) I love bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwiches.
3.) Bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast sandwiches do not love me.
4.) Getting lost within the first 10 minutes of hitting the trials is incredibly embarrassing, even if no one is around to laugh at you.
