We exited to Bakerville at 5:30AM towards the Grays + Torreys dirt road. Already folks parked on the path - we could have made up our own parking spot but decided to park 1-mile out from the trailhead. The extra 2-miles was not enjoyable considering a full hike including both summits but early bird gets the worm. The trail was congested - both tourists and Coloradans. The weather called for 85% chance of precipitation starting ~11:30AM to Noon time-frame. Right on cue, sprinkles started at 11:45AM as we were getting back in our vehicle. Breathtaking views from the top of each summit. Highly recommend, just check the weather and be cognizant of clouds moving in!
