This is a low-mileage (ca. 16 - 20 miles), high-elevation backpack with 2 nights of camping at high-altitude lakes. We'll summit Conejos Peak, a thirteener, as a bonus on the way. It's all on trail so should be straightforward. I have done about half of this loop but have not yet started from this particular TH - we may not be able to drive the last 1.8 miles. Drive time should be on the order of 3.5 hours.
