It's a day trip. I'd consider making it either a gnarly mountain day, i.e. as long as it takes, or an over nighter. There is supposedly a spring at the end of the road. Even mor gnar. Ride there from here... Either way, Cameron said he was in. -M Check the summitpost page for King Lear Peak. It’s a day trip.
