Conundrum Hot Springs Weekend

We did a backpacking trip last weekend to Conundrum Hot Springs. It's a classic trip although quite arduous if you have quite a bit of weight on your back.

Five people were in our party: me, David, Emily, Amy, and Tanya.

Total days being away from Boulder was 4. We left Thursday afternoon and returned Sunday evening.

Thursday night we camped out near Gothic which left us 3 full days of backpacking.

Either way you do it the length of the hike is equivalent from either Aspen or Crested Butte: about a 17 mile round trip.  The kicker is that the hike from Gothic entails a trip over Triangle Pass which is close to 13 thousand feet.  Some people might have a little more trouble with that
