Question about hiking the Enchantments in one day vs splitting it over two
Last month my buddy and I did the Enchantments thru hike outside Leavenworth in a single day, about 18 miles and 4,500 feet of climbing, and we were wrecked by the time we hit the Snow Lakes trailhead. He says one day is the right way because you travel light and skip the permit mess, but I keep thinking we missed the good parts by moving so fast through the core zone. Two nights would mean hauling a bear can and camping in a spot that took three lottery tries to get. For those who have done it both ways, which one actually felt worth it?

Ha, rushing the good stuff is a life pattern.
