Anticipating more snow melt this week and next, and with ski conditions deteriorating, let's do a loop hike over Skyscraper peak in the Indian Peaks. Starting at Hessie TH (past Eldora), hike up to Woodland Reservoir, then up onto the ridge to tag Skyscraper peak. Then go down past Devils Thumb and Jasper lakes.
This is a strenuous hike due to variable conditions and distance. Be prepared to turn around if conditions warrant.
High winds or snowstorms cancel.
