if you go back to that area, you can bag four 14-ers in one day just above alma: mts bross, cameron, lincoln, and democrat are all right in a row there.

happyjack Yes I am familiar with Hoosier Ridge, having seen it on maps during our scouting. We spoke with a guy at the TH of Quandary who had attempted the four peak circuit. I think he got three of them, because he was pinned down for two hours by snow and wind. This was two weeks ago, a day or two before my Grays photo above. The weather did a quick dip into the nasties, then back to blue skies.
We are not technical climbers, so whatever peaks we hike would need to have little to no exposure, approx the same as Grays and Quandary. We have also hiked the Dolomites in Italy and Austria, for reference. Challenging, but not too dangerous.
