Failure to have the necessary experience, physical conditioning, supplies, or proper equipment can result in injury or death. Hike, climb, or ski with care and use your best judgment. Be wary of all terrain and be sure to bring the necessary gear. Remember that backcountry skiing is much different than a visit to the ski area.

The described hiking and backcountry ski routes are located in terrain that can change dramatically due to erosion, human intervention, weather and other factors. Even daily changes in weather can cause a route to become more dangerous.

Please respect private property. 14ers.com supports the rights of private landowners to determine how and by whom their land will be used. It is your responsibility to determine if land is private and to obtain the appropriate permission before entering the property. Under Colorado state law, the public may cross private lands to access public lands only when a public road or right-of-way (easement) for public access exists across the private lands. In the absence of such a right-of-way, the public has no right to cross private lands without first obtaining permission from the landowner. The landowner is under no obligation to grant such permission.
