Tortilla Creek Massif - Tortilla Flat

At 10:19 AM, I started my hike up Tortilla Creek Massif. The walk to the trailhead in the campground was 0.74 miles, and it took me 14 minutes from Tortilla Flat. Then, I reached the summit at 11:03 AM. From the trailhead in the campground the elevation gain to the summit is about 460 feet in 0.6 miles. The summit is a 1.3 mile hike from Tortilla Flat, and it took me 43 minutes. My hike was 2.7 miles round-trip, and it took me 1 hour and 36 minutes.
