Backpacking to Mummy Springs

On July 31, my brothers and I hiked to Mummy Springs, near Mount Charleston. We were planning to hike to the top of Mummy Mountain, but we were too slow and tired. We hiked three miles in three hours, the uphill part really slowing us down. We found a nice uneven hillside to camp on just past the spring, which actually had some running water. It was a terrible night sleep, but we had a good time hiking and talking together.

It sounds like you had fun...I do wish we lived a little closer so Cam and I could do more with you all and your sweet wives. We love Colorado, but miss the connections we'd have if we were out there.
