We will be hiking down from Sunrise, past the Winthrop Glacier and up to Mystic Lake. Then we will hike all the way back up to Sunrise. This is a very strenuous trip made more so since we cover so much of the distance and then turn around and do a strenuous climb back out. It gets dark at 7pm so we need to keep the pace steady and fast. It is just under 20 miles round trip with a total gain of just over 3200. We will be on the Wonderland Trail the whole time. I do not stop long or often so... More
We will be hiking down from Sunrise, past the Winthrop Glacier and up to Mystic Lake. Then we will hike all the way back up to Sunrise. This is a very strenuous trip made more so since we cover so much of the distance and then turn around and do a strenuous climb back out. It gets dark at 7pm so we need to keep the pace steady and fast. It is just under 20 miles round trip with a total gain of just over 3200. We will be on the Wonderland Trail the whole time. I do not stop long or often so be sure to have food and water where you can access it as we hike. Also, I hope to be out by dark, but as always - be sure to bring a headlamp and extra batteries.
