It was 5:00 am when we hit the trailhead of one of the most challenging day-hikes the Wasatch mountains have to offer. For August, it was a cool morning, but I knew that would change as soon as the sun crept over the jagged peak above us.

We hiked quickly, reaching the peak in about 6 hours. The temperature had already reached 95°F (35°C).
