Brandon and my dad and I started the hike at 6:45am from Trail Ridge Canyon up to Mummy Mountain. (those pictures are on a black and white roll--will post when I get them developed) My dad went home and me and Brandon continued along the North Loop trail to Mt. Charleston, then around the South Loop trail to Griffith Peak and then back down to our car at the Cathedral Rock parking lot. We had to walk the last mile or two in the dark, and got to the car right at 8:00pm. It was a good twenty miles and our legs could feel it. I never hiked with trekking poles before, but man they sure are nice. Really does make it easier on your knees, etc.
