Pikes Peak from the crags trailhead. Gate was still closed 1 mile below trailhead due to snow on road. Good training hike for Denali with 30 pound packs and high winds all day. The new summit house is very nice. Microspikes through the trees and almost no snow above treeline. Too dry for this time of year. We carried snowshoes and never used them. 9 hours round trip.
