Mount Massive - East Slopes

Let’s do Mount Massive - East Slopes (main route):

• Date/dates: Sun, July 20th - will also consider Sat, July 19th. Possibly open to other dates depending on my job schedule weather.

• TH: Mt. Massive TH

• Vehicle difficulty to TH: 2WD dirt to TH

• Length: 14.5 miles hiking

• Elevation gain: 4,500’

• Start time: 4 am from TH.

If anyone is interested in finding BLM land with me to camp the night before or carpooling, please let me know. l will leave 4:00 am from TH - will not wait past 4:15 am.

** I have done 20 CO 14ers so far and will finish them all as soon as possible. Goal at least 15 this simmer. A bit above average speed going up and slower going down. As long as someone isn’t going so slow that we run into lightening in the afternoon, fine waiting from people as long as it’s not so slow it kills the momentum.
