A guest came to us wanting to trail run/fast pack the Presidential Range, but still hoping to utilize the hut system by stretching the thing out over three days. She would stay at the Madison Spring Hut and Lakes of the Clouds hut. With her on this exciting tour was Redline Guide Chase Hall. The summary and photos below are his.
A Three Day Presidential Traverse with two overnights in the Higher Summits Huts: Madison Spring and Lakes of the Clouds. What a cool experience to share with my guest who reached out to Redline Guiding asking if a guide could help hike with the traverse. The guest was having so much fun. The views were incredible, the Hut Croo were so nice and catching up and hearing stories from other hikers made this assignment so special. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect for a traverse across the range. Having the stopovers at the huts made for a very fun three days. There was no rush with plenty of time to savor it. My guest ad I were ahead of schedule the whole way so we took our time on each summit and continued on with the hike with ease. The Presidential Traverse split up over three days with two stopovers at the huts make for a very relaxing experience. Thank you to our guest for this amazing opportunity to help you. I had a very fun time. —Chase
