Gear that made the difference on White Rim:
We went Shafer start w/ a clockwise White Rim line starting at 6:00 AM. Sun was strong in exposed stretches by late morning. Most of the route was in stable shape w/ minor rough patches.
Gear that worked: Base layer, Watch w/ altimeter, Rain jacket.
Recovery kit stayed unused, but we were glad to have it.
Quick scores: overall=4, difficulty=3, views=4
Worth every bit of effort.
