I drove to the trailhead with hopes to time trial the round trip, which I loosely did, but as you can tell by the picture I put my slow shoes on (altra mt blanc) instead of my time trial shoes (la sportiva akasha). There was almost no parking, even in the overflow lots, so I was a little discouraged from an all out effort but I still gave it almost my all although I did have to pull off the trail about 5 times throughout the effort for common courtesy. I stopped at the summit for about 90 seconds to get a picture and then started the descent. All of that to say is I gave a good effort but there could be up to 5 minutes to shave off the round trip if someone goes with no crowds, no summit stops, no water, no phone, no shirt, and no sun. Made up most of my time on the descent in 27:46, but since I started my watch at the over flow parking (rookie mistake but a testament to where my head was at in regards to not thinking it would be possible w the crowds) I didn't get an exact split on the climb. I have friends who could cremate this time (I'm specifically referring to David Hedges and Cade Michael) if they can generate the downhill wattage, which is why I haven't bothered to summit this until now. That's all. Sorry for my 2nd grade grammar skills.
