We will hike Green and Bear tomorrow. Meeting @7:30 at the NCAR trailhead
The options from there will be to ascend Green via the 1st and 2nd Flatirons loop and descend down to Green Bear trail. At Bear Canyon we can either take the West Ridge up Bear Peak getting us back to our cars around 3, or skip Bear and just head down the canyon and get back 1ish. My preference would be to summit Bear, but that will make for a longer day - 12 miles - than the prior trip (8 miles), but would be getting us back to Boulder about the same time as having left RMNP 1:00 - 2:00.
Including Bear gives us 4,100’ for the day, Green alone would be 2,700’ or about what Chasm would have been.
