This will be a long challenging day, but it will be a beautiful hike through the canyon. While the trail generally trends downhill there are a lot of short uphill sections and the last 2 miles or so from the mouth of the canyon to the Bridgeport trailhead might be more difficult than normal as the light fades. It will be cold in the morning and hopefully warm during the day. Bring layers so you can stay comfortable.
The shuttle fee will be $15 / person. I arranged for Pali Tours to do the shuttle.
Here is the hike route and statistics.
