Trail Overview

Leaving Purgatory Resort, Forest Service Road 578 quickly climbs to Hermosa Park utilizing well maintained narrow dusty switchbacks. Once peaking Forest Service Road 578, it drops you into a beautiful valley with jaw dropping views of North Twilight Peak. At the very west end of Hermosa Park lies Sig Creek Campground, a pretty popular dispersed campground that all vehicles can access. If theres no sites available, venture up Sid Creek where you'll find a handful of pull off spots suitable for camping.
