Did this hike in October when the mountain already had a good dusting of snow. Thought I came prepared with extra layers and micro-spikes. Nope
Climbed Elbert and Massive together on Oct 14th. 24.5 miles and 9300’ of gain.
This hike was steep and long. The aspens were turning and it was a beautiful hike.
Trail conditions were excellent. Â No snow, ice, or mud. Â Weather was perfect, upper 30's at the start (4:40 A.M) and clear skies with little wind
Stayed in Leadville the night before. We started in the dark at 4:38 am. Gorgeous hike. It was hard. STEEP. Coming down was even difficult!Â
