The Big Climb

These are a selection of pictures from Calf Creek Campground to Roundup Flat Summit in Utah. In this section of our trip we did our single day highest climb of 4000 feet over about 25 miles, encountering grade sections in excess of 14%. This section contains "The Hogback". The Hogback is a 3 mile stretch of a narrow two lane road along a ridge spine with no shoulders or guardrails and has steep drops of several hundred feet on both sides.
