As I promised on the message board of '3 Peaks in 1 Day' hike on Aug.15th, I'm going to open up second group on Aug. 16th Sunday.
The route and hiking pace will be the same as Aug.15th Saturday hike.

Stats:
Hike: 3 Peaks (Mt.Charleston, Mummy Mt. & Griffith) in 1 Day — Trail Canyon, North/South Loop Trail - Open Loop
Trailhead: Trail Canyon Trailhead — marked.
Distance: 18+ miles
Elevation gain: 6,000 feet
Elevation peak: 11,918 feet (Charleston Peak)
Time: 10 to 12 hours
Scramble : class 1-2, few class 3
Hiking pace : Moderate/Fast
Difficulty: 5

We will meet at Starbucks at 95/Durango on 6:00AM and leave there by 6:15AM.
Our trail head is Trail Canyon Trail head. But we will finish at South Loop trail head. So, we park few cars at there before hiking.
We will start hiking by 7:00AM and climb Mummy Mtn. first. Then Charleston Peak and Griffith Peak. We will come down to South Loop trail head.

Compare this 3 peaks hike with Mt.Charleston hike, the total distance is not much difference. Maybe only a mile or two. But, since we climb 2 extra peak, we have to climb another 1,300 ft.
The total Elevation gain is 6,000 ft. Its about same elevation gain as climbing Black Mtn for 3 times.

I hope we can finish by sunset (7:22PM). But just in case, you MUST bring headlamp.
Even its on August, its cold up there when its windy. Actually, we got hail on last year. Don't forget your extra layer and poncho. Rain and hail doesn't kill you but cold temperature will kill you.
Its a long day hike, you need a lot of water. Bring at least 1 gallon of water. If you don't want to carry that much water, stash the water at some peak before we do this hike. Also, bring some snacks. Its all day hike and you won't make it if you don't eat anything.
The route doesn't have many trees to protect us from sun shine. Please bring Sunscreen, Sunglass and hat/cap.
