🥾 Trail Time | Summer Summit Kickoff 🌄 | Mount Morrison Trail
Details
🥾 Trail Time | Summer Summit 🌄 is a bi-weekly social hike series focused on staying active, building community, and progressively building endurance through HARD hikes (~2,000–2,800 ft of elevation gain).
Throughout the summer, we'll work our way toward bigger climbs, higher elevations, and even better views, culminating in a season finale on Mt. Bierstadt—a popular first 14er for many Colorado hikers.
Come solo or bring a friend (just include them in your RSVP).
✨ We create the space — you bring the energy!
📍 THIS WEEK'S HIKE
Mount Morrison Trail (Out-and-Back) • ~5,867 ft starting elevation • 3.7 miles • ~2,014 ft gain • ~3 hrs
Don't let the mileage fool you—Mount Morrison packs over 2,000 feet of elevation gain into less than 2 miles. This steep Front Range climb is a great test of endurance, with a short scramble near the summit and sweeping views of Red Rocks, Denver, and the surrounding foothills. A perfect kickoff to our Summer Summit series! 🏔️🥾💪
