adventure touring
Mount Sneffels
14,157'
Uncompahgre Peak
14,309'
Perhaps the most photographed mountain in Colorado, Mount
Sneffels stands as the magnificent northern guardian to the
expansive San Juan Mountains. To climb the beautiful peak,
head to Ouray, then follow Camp Bird Road up to Yankee Boy
Basin. It is a difficult hike and a helmet is recommended as a
precaution against loose rocks. Leave the trailhead early in the
morning and allow at least half a day for this adventure.
Handies Peak
14,058'
Ranked as Colorado's easiest 14er to climb. This hidden gem
can be accessed by driving east on Highway 50, then taking
Highway 114 south to Lake City. From Lake City, follow County
Road 20 to the trailhead. Allow a half day for this moderate
hike. Be sure to take in the view of the wildflowers in American
Basin just below the peak.
This fantastic peak is the highest point in the San Juan
Mountains and rewards climbers with unparalleled panoramic
views. Reach the trailhead from County Road 20 near Lake City.
High-clearance, 4WD vehicles are strongly recommended.
Ambitious trekkers can bag two fourteeners in a single day by
including nearby Wetterhorn Peak on their route.
Wetterhorn Peak
14,015'
Situated right next door to Uncompahgre, this magnificent
peak reminded early settlers of the famous Wetterhorn of
Switzerland. Access this 14er via high-clearance, 4WD access
roads from the Silver Jack area near Owl Creek Pass or via the
Lake City access for Uncompahgre Peak. Allow at least half a
day if approaching from the Lake City side or a full day from
Wetterhorn Basin near Owl Creek Pass.
