Kelso Ridge on Torreys Peak is one of the most classic highly accessible scrambles in the Front Range. The highlight is a short knife edge section composed of beautiful white rock near the top. It can be climbed in any season and is usually a pleasurable outing. This was my fourth time on the route and likely not my last. We had some fun conditions.
