Trail: Kitsuma/Youngs Ridge Start/Finish: Ridgecrest Trailhead Distance: 9-10 miles ? Challenge: Run this out and back and continue to record your times in your quest at dipping below the elusive 1:20 mark! Keep track of your and others' times below or on the discussion board

Directions: https://www.google.com/maps/place/Royal+Gorge+Rd/@35.6215501,-82.2702448,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x8859fee2c35f121d:0xc47fca7c265eabc8 media type="custom" key="6678451" width="72" height="72"

Join Matt Kirk and I in our personal quest of recording fast times out at Kitsuma in an attempt to join the [|Kitsuma Klub]. There have been some questions about the actual mileage as the sign states 4 miles and some say it is 5 to Old Fort Picnic Area...but you will see that this is of no consequence as you board the Pain Train of the return trip! Start your watches with both feet on the parking lot pavement of the trailhead on the Ridgecrest side, then hit the dirt...take a split at the water faucet that is on your left when just entering the Old Fort Picnic Area, then turn around for the return! Stop your watches for a finish time when feet hit the parking lot pavement again! Record your times below...//you can also run this the other way by making the start/finish at the Old Fort Picnic Area for the bmilK amustiK! Which way do you think is harder?//

//Route addendum (10/27/11):// So, they have re-routed the trail around the summit of Kitsuma Peak, so starting from this date forward, the times will be a touch faster methinks!?! At the new split, there are two signs...one showing a trail to the Kitsuma Peak Overlook (an out and back trail), then one that stays straight on Youngs Ridge. This is the direction that the new route takes, and in this runner's opinion, takes off a good minute or two of the traverse! Still going to be ridiculous to break Kaptain Krunk's time regardless! Keep on keepin' on...Mad A
