New Start Time 9am*
Chief Mt offers amazing views of the surrounding Rocky Mountains. Hiking up through the pines of the Arapaho National Forest, you will reach a break in the trees and the short and steep
trek will reward you with 360 vistas. Prominent peaks such as Pikes and Longs are easily visible. The path is rocky, well maintained, and well marked.
Opportunity to join Liz for an additional adventure after to the Mestaa’èhehe Mountain Firelookout which is right nextdoor to chief mt!

NOTE: Due to the increase in Meetup fees (annual groups are now $300 to run), as of 4/1/25, I am requesting a $2 contribution from participants who can afford it (donation is not required to participate and no one will be turned away). Funds go toward the cost of hosting the group. Cash or venmo is preferred.
