Tokaloo Rock & Aurora Peak

Beautiful, clear, and cool fall trip on 9/28 with sunrise/sunset at ~7am/7pm. Used standard route from 'Guide to 100 Peaks at MRNP'. Left cars on foot (no bikes) with alpenglow on Mt Wow at 6:30am, returned at 6:30pm with 6.5 hrs up, 4.5 hrs down, and an hour on summit. Total trip was ~18 miles and ~5600' gain (1000' to round pass, 4200' round pass connector trail low spot to summit, 400' regain to round pass). Bagged Andrew on ascent by ascending talus slope on SSE aspect (used zigzags to stay out of each other's fall lines). My photos can be seen at:
