UN 7432 'Kelly Flats Peak' 7/2/12

I was hoping to get an overview of the High Park Fire destruction by climbing some points in the Greyrock group, but with seemingly every trail, pullout and river access point taped off, I had to settle for something smaller. Plus that, I was feeling absolutely awful with some stomach illness and immediately re-injured my left hamstring which I'd aggravated climbing Green Mountain the week before. I was a sick, sorry puppy so the micro-climb of 7432 would have to do. I was surprised to see the Kelly Flats Road completely open(no police tape and cones like everything else) with the gate open. I climbed up the road a few hundred feet to the saddle with 'Heart Attack Hill' and took some of the lesser traveled roads towards, and up, to the small summit before dropping down to the road and back home.
