Trip
Hiking – Square Top Mtn
Climb a high 13er off of Guanella pass, right across the road from Mt. Bierstadt. This climb replaces the previously listed Mt. Elbert climb, due to the Willow fire near Leadville. We'll include a side trip to the Square Top lakes, plus do an alternate route from the lakes to the summit, descending the standard route. The total mileage will be around 8.5 miles with roughly 2600 vertical gain.
