Thanks all! Really appreciate the help!! We are a group of 17 fairly fit guys. Half the group gets in on Thursday at 13h40 (local time) and other other half Friday (13h40 local). Ideally would like to do a hike with half the group and the full group. - do you think there is enough time to hike something in the evening - we land at 13h40 and i read that sunset is about 17h30.. i'm thinking a really short hike (something for a cool sunset view?) or just wait until morning? Wondering if anyone's has thoughts on what trail would be best (Thursday half-group (#1) is looking for something advanced and Friday full-group (#2) something medium). Thanks again!
