Daylight at the trailhead

On October 14, 2026 — the day this page was generated — first light reaches this trailhead at 7:07 a.m., the sun rises at 7:36 a.m. and sets at 6:41 p.m., and the last usable light fades about 7:10 p.m. (MDT) — 11 h 05 min of daylight. At about 2.7 mph plus 30 minutes per 1,000 feet of climbing, the 31.8-mile round trip works out to roughly 13 h 50 min of walking — more than a single day of daylight here, so plan it as an overnight or hike it in sections.
