A popular and easy route to high summit of the south peak of Arapaho - 13,397. It's an eight mile round trip and quite rocky for much of it's length. The 5 mile road up to the trailhead at the more or less non-existent campgrounds is equally rocky. Probably easy fare for locals who are used to this kind of driving to get to a trailhead. That being said, the summit view is worth th effort. In my case, after a fine sunrise, the weather headed south and eventually turned to a light drizzle before clearing later that day.
