Monte Cristo Summit from Woodruff

The Monte rises 27.9km through alpine terrain above the treeline, gaining 742m to 2,740m. The average gradient of 2.7% disguises ramps of 6.4% — the kind of gradient that turns plans into prayers. This is a climb of endurance — the kind of effort measured in hours, where pacing matters more than power. The summit at 2,740m sits above the treeline, where the air thins and the views extend to distant peaks. Located in Utah, United-states.
