Cloud Peak Summit - 13,171 ft
Checked off another tough trail adventure this summer and brought Landon Hansch along for his first summit push ever, dude crushed it.
We left town at 3:30am, got to the trailhead at 6:30am and then jammed the 24.5 miles + 6824 ft of gain in 9hrs 22min back to the trailhead.
Spent most of the early miles running but the climb and navigating the boulder field ended up being pretty rowdy (like everyone said it would).
Enjoyed some rain, wind, hard-earned-views and a GIANT sub sandwich at the top before making the trek back down (the worst part on our old man knees).
All-in-all this made for one hell of a day with some great views and even better company🤘
