Missouri Mountain episode 4

Recorded after soaking in the Cottonwood Hot Springs, Short-Rope and the Exiled Michigander welcome another 14er Finisher to the podcast who we call CTP or Colorado Trail Patrick.  We discuss two non-standard routes on Missouri Mountain: a spring snow climb up the north face of Missouri’s C-Couloir and the West Ridge from Lake Clohesy.  We also chat about the river crossing on the Rockdale trailhead, the steep switch backs on the Missouri Gulch approach, tricks for cooking omelets over a camp fire, slow-energy-release trail food, and the most efficient way to climb Missouri, Belford, Oxford, Columbia and Harvard. We also introduce a new "jingle" when the conversation gets "off route."
