  • Mileage: 5.5 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 4,000 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 13,100 ft

Starting from Wooly Mammoth at 5am, drive 3h30 or so to the trailhead. The last few miles are on rough 4wd road, so hoping some folks have capable vehicles.

From the TH, hike along dirt roads then rough class 2 over 4000' to get to the summit of Bushnell, which is a county high point. We may tack on the neighboring peak depending on how we feel.

This is a strenuous hike due to the elevation gain and hiking over rough terrain.

TBD -> likely staying somewhere closer to the trailhead
