Snowmass Mountain via Snowmass Maroon Trail

Post by jmichener »

Has anyone successfully hiked in to Snowmass Lake/Mountain via the Snowmass Maroon Trail (Off Divide Road/Brush Creek Road)? I wasn't sure if this was allowed with the shuttle/parking restrictions this year or if everyone has to start at Maroon Lake?

Also wondering if anyone else has attempted Snowmass Mountain this week? I did see the one peak conditions update from 9/14?

I hiked up to Snowmass Lake on this trail earlier in the summer, you should be good to go. Can't speak to the current conditions on Snowmass though

There weren't any parking/shuttle restrictions at this TH in July when we went, but parking was hard to come by as the road gets pretty narrow down at the bottom. Great hike!
