Help?! Need ideas!!

Post by lydiah »

Okay, so been searching the internet and I am stopping here to see if anyone is able to offer some guidance.

I have a friend in from Wisconsin and he wants to do a trail tomorrow "with views". He's able to do about anything... he's well conditioned.

So I've been up to Indian Peaks twice in the last couple weeks and there's just to much snow up there still. From what I understand, the mountains a little further south, like Springs west, don't have the amounts of snow like places towards Summit County, IPW, etc. Does anyone have any ideas?? Knowledge of conditions would be super helpful too!


THANKS!!!

You could do Waldo Canyon by Manitou Springs. Good loop with views of Pikes.
