Let's meet in Ridgway at the parking lot by Hartwell Park at 8:30am. That's at the NW corner of Sherman St and N Railroad St in Ridgway. From there, we'll caravan to the TH.

This hike should take around 3.5-4 hours. It's a jeep road and most of it is not open to motor vehicles. There are beautiful views along the way and 360 degree views at the top. The hike gets a little steeper towards the top and it probably feels a little harder due to the altitude.
