Mt Silverheels via Hoosier Ridge: 9 miles 

The hike starts across the road from the parking area at Hoosier Pass.  Briefly hike up a road, then up an informal trail as you climb Hoosier Ridge.  After a little over two miles of hiking (when the ridge heads to the north), leave Hoosier Ridge and descend about 400' to the north spur of Mt Silverheels.  From there, climb up the spur to the summit. Most of the hike is above 12,000' and off trail, so the views are fantastic but there are a lot of high altitude up and downs.
