A Colorado Front Range Hiking & Scrambling classic, this Adventure, just over an hour's drive from Denver delivers a beautiful approach combined with airy views into the Arapahoe Basin, complete with Glacier, is amazing! The climbing was very enjoyable as well. Route finding was fairly straight forward with orange arrows marking much of the way. Combining this route with the Snow/Couloir climb "Skywalker" during spring snow conditions would only make it better! This is an out and back route as documented, the ridge is .8 miles one way.
