Description:
Imagine yourself on the summit of a 13,000' mountain peak, high above the timberline. There are so many peaks both near and far that they're impossible to count... literally hundreds of peaks in sight.
And solitude... maybe you'll see a handful of other people out on the trail, maybe no one at all. This is wilderness hiking at it's finest.
Along this hike, expect unparalleled scenery and rugged terrain. We climb peaks in the Holy Cross Wilderness Area, the Eagles Nest Wilderness Area, and the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness Area.
