Ellevated Hike - Granite Mtn Tippy Top - with Wendell

About 9 miles and 2000 ft gain, out and back. It will take about 6 hours.

I have only been to the overlook, but I have been wanting to go to the tippy top. I found a special guest hike leader who knows the way. Wendell has done this hike and is willing to lead. I will be the sweep.

This hike isn't about pace. We'll have switchbacks and then bushwacking & rock scrambling. It is long, with a large amount of elevation gain, and tough parts after you may already be tired. Pants and leather gloves are recommended.

Please be at the gate when it opens at 7am and we'll head to Metate. We'll start as soon as everyone is ready.

You are responsible for your safety so please honor your body. We are only volunteering to show you the way.

Please let me know if you've hiked Wendell's long hikes when you RSVP. If you haven't hiked regularly with either of us, I will message you to make sure this hike is a good fit for you. This is a challenging hike, with very strong hikers, so we want to make sure everyone is ready for it.
