If I'm leaving at four, i might as well not sleep what the hell
Usually when I leave that early (4am) for a hike it takes days of prep to be able to get up early enough.
The 4pm depart time though can be a bit fucky for time depending on the trail I head to. I didn't set foot on the trail until about 7:30 and didn't get home until about 3am.
I got home at 3 basically because I learned on the trail that wolves had moved back into the area for the first time in decades. So my hike wasn't as long or stress free as I would have liked.
Good news is I got out only emotionally shaken not physically gnawed on.
