Took the Bulwark Ridge up from Dunraven Trailhead. Got up to South Signal around 10:30 a.m. and descended Signal around 11:30. The summits of both peaks were enshrouded in cloud when we first arrived but it cleared up to some spectacular views. We could see all the way up to the Medicine Bow Mountains in Wyoming. Just as we were descending Signal Mtn. a couple of hikers were about to summit. At the saddle we looked west and saw a monster thunderhead approaching from Comanche Peak. Just as we got below treeline some monstrous thunder began to roar. I hope those two dudes didn't get caught up high for long!

Winter conditions for this late Fall hike. We did both summits and enjoyed a windy albeit clear day.

Bulwark Ridge/N. Inlet
God-awful windy day. It wasn't that cold though. The wind speed and the temp must have been pretty much the same. Even in snow, this was an easy jaunt to make to a couple of non-descript "hills". Quite enjoyable though!

1st CO mountain
The date is an educated guess that should be accurate within a week or two. This was my first Colorado summit. Huzzah!

Signal mountainGreat views of the mummies and rmnp from a vantage point where you’re unlikely to encounter any other hikers.
