  • Did Challenger point on July 23rd. It was a beast of a hike. We backpacked into the willow lake area - which is no joke either with almost 3,000 feet of elevation gain from the trailhead. And...

  • Good, unpaved access to spectacular hiking trails and mountain lakes. Beautiful in every season. Dusty but passable dirt road.

  • Climbing with friends. Spectacular view! A little bit challenging from challenger point to the top of Kit Carson. Be careful on the trail you choose. Note: Read the weather conditions before you head to these peaks.
  • Great view. Took the class 4 north route approach. Fun climb, recommend
