  • Mileage: 8.0 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 2,100 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 6,322 ft
  • Pace: 2 mph

We will go at an easy pace (1.5 - 2 mph) with plenty of rest breaks as needed. Bring lunch and plenty of water. Dress for your comfort with the day's predicted temps. Hiking poles and sturdy boots are recommended.

For safety, we will all hike as a group so please assess beforehand whether this distance/elevation gain/pace will suit you before registering.

My style: I am curious, love to be wowed by Nature and adventurous. As a leader, my style is more relaxed stopping to be in wonder, enjoy the views, enjoy any flowers blooming, keeping an eye out for critters and enjoying how we each respond to the awe presenting itself. I value the journey as much as the destination and strive to foster hiking as a wholistic experience (body, mind and spirit).

Meeting at the Sunrise Point trailhead at 8:30am
