8.5 mile round trip from the trailhead. 4100 ft of elevation gain. Tops out at 14,196'.

For your own safety, please plan on being off the summit and heading down by noon. Lightning hazards are high in the Colorado Rockies in the afternoon. Many people have been hit. There is a marker for someone who died on a mountain just across the valley.
