Report
This was a hard solo and unsupported effort in the rain. I’d run this one again.It was fun! Legs were pretty heavy, but I got them to turnover. Moody, but pretty views of Estes and the east side of RMNP. I also saw a few others on the lower trail. The social trail to the summit is steep and somewhat loose, but in decent shape.
Start and Finish are the East Portal Trail sign, photo attached to the report.
Nutrition and Hydration: Chugged 200mL of water at the car and had mini chocolate chip cookies and a pack of fruit snacks ready to go, but I didn’t need them.
