    About

    This moderate hiking trail is accessible year-round, from January through December, and offers a pet-friendly experience. The route takes approximately 2 hours to complete, covering varied terrain that may include sections of singletrack and doubletrack trails. Hikers can expect to park in a designated area, from which they can access the trailhead and begin their journey through the aspen highlands. The moderate difficulty level suggests that visitors should be prepared for some elevation gain and potentially uneven trail conditions.
