Ascent Trip Reportall i can say is we hiked up the wrong Mtn at first, we did a HUGE loop, it ended up being 15.3 miles long! we had wanted to just hike up Garfield but then we hiked up the wrong Mtn. we hiked up Gale head and hiked over from there, and being at the top of Garfield was worth every second, a beautiful top, 360 degree view, lafeyette Close by, and awesome, Cell service at the top, pretty cool, (verison) awesome hike we actually Ran the rest of the way about 1.5 Miles to the truck and the end of the hike, i know enough energy to run after 15.3 miles. were CRAZY! a awesome hike Highly reccomend this hike to extreme 4,000 + hikers
