Nov 11, 2015 — I started up the Mormon Ridge Trail, which was overall easy to follow. The last bit to Chiricahua Peak was an old burn area, but the trail was still in decent shape. I dropped back down from Chiricahua Peak and continued along the ridge on the Crest Trail. Along the way, I took a couple of detours to Raspberry Peak and Monte Vista Peak. I also took a detour up the east ridge of Johnson Mountain. Most people seem to hike down the Morse Trail from the base of Johnson Peak, but I continued around Johnson Peak on the pleaasant trail, and then down the Pole Bridge Canyon Trail, which became difficult to follow at times. Mainly I just stuck to the creek and somehow managed to find the trail in bits and pieces as I descended back to the trailhead.
