Trip
Hiking – East Bear to Stultz/Tanner Trail
A variation on the existing trip description - a moderate 7-mile with 2300 feet of gain with some off-trail scrambling over rocks to reach the summit of Curley Peak. If we're feeling frisky we could extend toward Tanner Peak to add a mile or two.

If the trail is clear of snow we may be sharing it with motorized dirt bikes. Have traction devices in case snow lingers on the trail.
The route is taken from "Best Southern Front Range Hikes" by Greg Long but is exploratory for the leader.
Hikers coming from the north will meet at 7:30 a.m. to form an (optional) carpool at the South Nevada Safeway (1920 South Nevada Avenue). We'll hit the highway by 7:45 to rendezvous in Canon City with anyone coming from Pueblo/Canon City around 9. The East Bear trailhead is around 10 miles outside of Canon City on County Road 143.
Required Equipment
Traction may be necessary if spring snow lingers.
