Headed out to Lost Dutchman today to hike Flatiron; the weather was good, why not? Pretty busy on the trail today and on the "Iron". Spring break you know? Hadn't been up here yet this season, really like this hike.

I hit the trail running early before the crowds hit, and hung out at the summit (5024) for a while in solitude. Beautiful.
I found a couple of alternate ways up and down since my last visit, they helped! Then went down the ridgeline trail a bit for photos and extra mileage doing some scouting for future trips. Made my way to visit the crash memorial, which is always special. Finally I joined the crowds on Flatiron for a bite to eat and rest before heading down. A very enjoyable day! Wished there was more flowers and running water though. Too late.
