OK Matt,
Do you have a rough guess on how long it'll take. I know I can do 7 miles in 3 hours easy even stoping for pictures ;)
Also are we planting a car at the end for a ride back to the start ?

I don't know how long. I'm a slow hiker. So it can take as long as you'd like. I'm guessing 3 hours.
No plan for a car, unless someone volunteers.
