White Rim FKT attempt? Not quite, but moved well.
We went Shafer switchbacks into classic White Rim viewpoints starting at 5:10 AM. Morning temps were cool and almost windless. Most of the route was in stable shape with minor rough patches.
Ratings: 5 overall, 3 difficulty, 4 scenery.
Check conditions before you go.
