Grays Peak Loop via Kelso Ridge()

Drove up the fm road just a bit and ended up parking next to a couple of cars and walking to trailhead. Cost me 36 min and 800'. Would recommend taking a 4wd and parking in trailhead lot! Bit of snow on parts (must cross snow on descent from Torreys to get back to main trail). Brought microspikes but didn't need to use them. Snow was really slushing up as the day progressed! Woke= 4:30am, drank ~12-16 oz water and left ~5am UCAN with protein (8oz)= 5:40am Started up fm road= ~6:15am Started trail= 6:54am First water= ~7:55am UCAN with ~8oz water= 8:25am 2nd water= summit of Torreys ~9:30am Nothing else until car ~11:35am
