Trail Overview

You can see James Peak on the western horizon on a clear day. The trail goes just above 12,000 feet, so snow arrives early and stays late. Unlicensed vehicles are permitted, and this is an enjoyable trail for them. Parking and camping are available on the north end of the trail.

Deep Snow
Pretty deep snow on the trail right after the peak on the north side. Trail was fairly easy from St Marys. Some washed out areas just before treeline and above treeline. Fun trail with beautiful views of Loch Lomond & Chinns

Far from a 6/10. Have done 4's and 5's that were much harder than this one. Two steep sections that aren't difficult if you know how to pick a line. Wouldn't recommend for novices but not nearly as hard as described.
