Challenge Hike-Bear Peak Canyon Loop
Details
Please check in the day before the hike for weather related changes.
Anyone is welcome to join this 8.6 mile, 2,818 feet elevation gain hike, rated as "Hard". There is a large, free parking lot at the trailhead (with a bathroom inside the NCAR building) - see link below. This hike is for those looking for a fun, social hike with a little challenge on pace and elevation gain.
We'll hike at a slightly quick-ish pace - approximately 2.5-3 miles per hour - slower on the way up with several short breaks as needed, a longer break at the summit, then a little quicker pace on the way down.
Plan to bring layers, water, and a snack. While we love our furry family, please no dogs on this hike.
Please note: This hike is a bit on the challenging side due to the elevation gain. It is a great 14er training hike!!
