Last mile and a half to the top was a miserable skree climb. Equivalent to hiking up sand dunes. Then one flat snow field to cross before hiking the last little bit to the summit.
Left at 550am and finished around 230pm. Definitely felt hangry and miserable for the last bit up. Started getting pretty hot on the way down.
No blisters and feeling good the next day. Backpack gave me sore shoulders but otherwise felt good. Difficult hike for sure! And it’s 14miles instead of 12 ????
