Anybody in here done the Enchantments?
I'm planning to day hike the Enchantments this year. I've never won a permit in the lottery and I don't have flexibility to play the in person game.
I'm going in over Aasgard and coming out at Snow.
If anybody has a gpx, I will be eternally grateful. I know the basics but would like to study the elevation plot in detail.
I know this is a stretch here, and I'm asking around.

My god, you took less than 8 hours! I'm in awe. I'm thinking about a 7 am start and bringing head lamps.
If my Garmin is to be believed, I did 16 miles yesterday and 5,120' of vert. Knees are sore today.
It's not just that the Chants are a big day, it's also that there's no bail out option, and I can't spend the night.
Anyway, thanks so much for the link!

Good call on an early start and bringing a headlamp. You just never know.

Definitely check out All Trails! There is awesome information there about the Enchantments and can give you a great picture of what it looks like. Plus people post trip reports so you can get a better feel for it. It is on my bucket list this summer as well.
