My friend Matt (aka “Farmer”), who held the mountain distance record for a short
period last summer, had a dream for many years to launch near town, fly out to
the Pioneers – our closest range of radical mountains (about 15 miles as the
crow flies) – top land at the Pioneer Cabin, which was built in 1937, and spend
the night. The icing on the cake would be to launch the next day near the cabin
and fly home. A proper bivy trip in maximum style, but a very tall order – one
he'd tried before but never pulled off. In fact, it had never been done. I moved
to Sun Valley just a year ago and had never even seen the Pioneer Cabin, and I
couldn't imagine just flying around in the Pioneers. They are huge, black, some
would say menacing, peaks rising over 13,000 feet – usually something we like to
go over the top of with plenty of height and not look back. Not a place to hang
around.
