Any idea how long the hike is from the portal to Trail Camp? I think from the trail head to Outpost Camp would be 3 hrs or so. Lastly, Trail camp to the summit does any know how long?

The reason I’m asking is I plan to drive from San Diego to the trail arriving around lunch or afternoon, hike u to at least outpost camp but the goal is to set up camp before dark.
Friday, either hike to the summit or trail camp and explore the area and back down or camp somewhere and head out no later than early Sat.

I called the ranger station today and asked them if I stayed overnight Friday and hiked back down Saturday with an overnight permit.

They told me I’d be grandfathered in so can stay over Friday night do thats covered.

Thanks, Mike
