If anyone wants to carpool, meet at Wooly Mammoth Park n Ride (Golden, CO), near Section KK by 5:00AM (depart by 5:15AM). I drive a Dark Gray Toyota Tundra with a topper.

Please be aware of your physical condition and limitations before signing up for this hike. This will be a long day of hiking so you must be prepared with all necessary gear, food and water. Sunscreen, bug spray and proper rain/wind gear are strongly recommended.
