CHS 2 Hike

Field trip: Conditioning Hiking Series

CHS 2 Hike - Granite Mountain Trail

CHS hike led at a CHS 2 pace (2.0-3.0 mph) The hike is 8.6 miles (under the June standard of 10 miles) and 3800 ft elevation gain (over June's 3000 ft goal). We'll average the stats and call it a great June choice as is, though we will have the option make this 10 miles by extending a flat(ish) mile out and back on an intersecting trail on the way back down - TBD on that. Also, if there is still too much snow for a safe hike up Granite Mt, we will switch to Dirty Harry's peak, with similar stats.
