We hit the trail at 630am and reached the summit at 815am. Spent about 30 minutes at the top and took about 90 minutes on the descent. It was getting warm by the time we reached the parking lot. Nice views all around. I good challenge, but probably not our favorite hike so far, winter or summer. It is somewhat of a grind, lots of switchbacks. We did run into another pair of Six Peak Challengers on our way down and exchanged stories before parting ways. Lots of people heading up by the time we had finished.
