Hey Nyker. I'd say about 26-27 miles RT with 8700' feet of gain.

Elevation: Symmes Creek Trailhead is at 6300 feet in elevation. Tyndall is 14,025' but you lose (and must regain) 500' of elevation after Symmes Creek Saddle.

Distance: 12 miles + 6000' feet to the Pass proper. 0.75 mile +500 to the Tyndall-Polychrome Saddle (base of the N. Rib).

The North Rib proper is less that 0.5 horizontal miles to the summit but it is about 1500 feet over class 3. I'd say at worst its about 1.5 miles from SHEPHERDS PASS TO THE SUMMIT.
