This loops includes doing Democrat, Cameron, Lincoln and Bross from the Kite Lake trailhead. When the snow melts, you can drive right up to Kite late, however since the road was snowed in, we backpacked in the 2.5 miles and set up camp at Kite Lake. After a not so great night of sleep due to coming up to 12.5k ft from Denver, we set off at 7am. The weather was great and we were able to do all 4 in about 8 hours without any real obstacles. What did stick in my head was the way down bross is all scree and very slippery. That descent alone took us over an hour because we were being very careful not to slip. Our round trip total including hiking the road was 13.5 miles.
