Hildebrand Ranch to Deer Creek Canyon
Details
This trail is closed from February 1st to July 31st to protect nesting raptors so let's do this one while we can! Alltrails states this is an 11.7 mile trail with 1768 ft of elevation gain. This hike is one-way so we will do a shuttle between Deer Creek Canyon Park and Hildebrand Ranch Park. The two parks are about 3 miles apart. We will start at Hildebrand Ranch.
Weather: I'll post a weather report the day before the hike so you will know what to wear but we will not cancel except in the case of EXTREEM weather conditions.
What to Bring: Dress in layers and according to weather conditions; sturdy shoes, water, snacks, sunscreen, hat, gloves, sunglasses, raincoat, trekking poles may be useful for the last two miles as it's a steep downhill trail section.
Dogs: Must be on a leash.
Max Attendees: Jefferson County limits group size to 14.
Sign Up: Sign up on the wait list. I will move people to the "going" list based on attendance reliability.
After the Hike: There are a couple good places for lunch after the hike. We will decide where to go while hiking.
Carpools: This is up to you. Reach out to people that will be traveling from your area.
