Hiking + Camping at Twin Lakes, near mt. Elbert

Details

Let's enjoy Fall's colors near Twin Lakes, just east of mt. Elbert!
This area is great for a variety of outdoor activities, with a couple camping options:
North side of lake:

  • Hillside camping with gorgeous views of Twin Lakes
  • Access to the mt. Elbert trailhead, so we can explore Colorado's highest mountain (it's still doable in September).
  • Lots of mountain wildlife in the area: deer, large red foxes, mountain pika above treeline.

Southeast edge of lake:

  • Lakeside camping
  • ~2mile flat-ish hike to a cool historical house and the Interlaken resort.
  • an MTB trail going around the entire lake.

Get in touch and I'll organize carpooling - I'll be driving from COS and can pick up 2-3 other people with camping/backpacking gear in my SUV, can also take up to 3 MTB on a bike rack.
I also have a few sets of camping/sleeping gear to lend to those who don't have their own, on a first-come-first-served basis.
Reach out to me +1 617 584 0074 for any questions!
