Please refer to Carey’s/KXØR excellent trip report for details.
Just providing some additional impressions (video clips) from my recent trip to Hagues Peak using the standard route (Lawnlake via saddle between Fairchild and Hagues). Carey took a slightly different approach from Lawnlake to the summit.
It depicts the beauty of the Mummy Range in the Rocky Mountain National Park and some of the terrain you will encounter.

Summit: 13560 ft / 4133
Elev. gain: 5010 ft / 1527 m
