    About

    The Ridge (East) Trail is a moderate hiking route that spans 1.80 miles, offering a relatively short yet notable excursion. At an elevation of 9038 feet, hikers can expect a steady climb with some potential for uneven terrain and variable trail conditions, particularly during the winter months from January to March and potentially into April, when snow and ice may be present.

Hikers should plan for approximately 1 hour and 1 minute to complete the trail, taking into account their individual pace and any potential stops along the way.
