Near the summit, Towers forks. Take the left fork, followed by a quick right at another fork. Route ends with a slap of the building through the clearing after the right fork. 3.4 miles with 1,800' of climbing.

There is a Strava segment for this route, which records more recent FKTs.

So....it is 14.1 miles? Just wondering, because this would be pretty amazing times for 14 miles.
