Hiking – Geneva Mountain

Geneva Mountain Hike for RMOTHG members.

  • Moderate
  • Mileage: 7.8 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 1,400 ft
  • High Point Elevation: 12,337 ft
  • Pace: 1.5-2.0 mph

Since this hike is entirely above treeline, it could be windy and cold but also sunny.  Be sure to have all appropriate layers.  We'll have snack breaks and lunch at Geneva Mt.  We will keep an eye on the weather and make an appropriate return to TH if weather warrants.  On a short scouting hike there were some low to the ground alpine flowers including  "alpine blue forget-me-nots"... my favorite.  Also...many wonderful views of surrounding peaks!
