Daylight at the trailhead
On August 31, 2026 — the day this page was generated — first light reaches this trailhead at 6:20 a.m., the sun rises at 6:47 a.m. and sets at 7:52 p.m., and the last usable light fades about 8:19 p.m. (CDT) — 13 h 05 min of daylight. At about 2.7 mph plus 30 minutes per 1,000 feet of climbing, the 2.7-mile route takes roughly 1 h 02 min, so leaving the trailhead at sunrise puts you back around 7:49 a.m. — 12 h 02 min before sunset.
