This moderate to strenuous hike starts at the Erickson Springs Trailhead and climbs above the Anthracite Creek to a beautiful vista after a 4 - 5 mile hike to a maximum elevation of 9,700 feet. We'll return down the way we came, with some steep sections. We'll be hiking through areas that are part of the Thompson Divide Withdrawal Plan (also included in the CORE Act Legislation that is working its way through Congress).
Meet at the WSCC office (204 Poplar Ave. Paonia, CO) at 7:15 am. We should return back to Paonia mid afternoon.
Be sure to bring water and hat/sun protection. Sorry, no dogs allowed on this hike.
We will send an email with additional details a few days before the hike.
Please, only one person per sign-up form. Thank you!!
