We definitely didn’t finish this trail. We wouldn’t have been able to finish this trail in generally because of it’s difficulty and our lack of preparedness for that. Secondly, it started to rain, which I guess was a bummer, but I recall us being 100% blown away by the difficulty. man0man. I spoke to a co-worker after the hike, and he said “Ohhh. That one. My wife re-named that trail the “We-Walkin” Trail!” Danggg. The Denver Post’s article on the hike does a great job of describing the hike (as I think we only got about a mile--which according to that article is where 1000 ft of the total 2200 elevation gain. Here is another shorter post that may be helpful in terms of directions/data). This wouldn’t be our last time on the trail, and it wouldn’t be our last time on the trail in which we didn’t reach our destination. This is definitely one to bag for...June? It’s hands down going to be one of those hikes that you’ll enjoy more if in better shape. It’s easy to get to which is saying a lot coming from me. ANYWAY we had to end our hike short due to rain--I can’t say it was unwelcomed. As we were not in shape.
