Lost Park Trailhead

This trailhead provides access to the Lost Creek Wilderness and trails in all directions, including Colorado Trail Segment #4, and is adjacent to the Lost Park Campground.

The Lost Park TH is in the middle of the Lost Creek Wilderness, at the end of Park CR-56. 

Alternate Titles:

Lost Creek to McCurdy Park Trail - Follow the Wigwam Trail (USFS #609) south and east paralleling Lost Creek, following the creek on social trails as it turns south (and away from the Wigwam) and passes a long set of cascades. Where the creek passes under a boulder field the route crosses the creek, then later crosses again via a cairned route over even larger house-size boulders. Continuing up a slope and over a minor ridge, the route drops back down to the creek and runs into the McCurdy Park Trail USFS #628, the turnaround point. Along the way there is occasional class 2 scrambling. 14 miles, 1600' gain.
 
Brookside McCurdy Trail - This TH is about in the middle of the trail, which has its own Route & Place.
 

Windy Peak - This is an all off-trail trip to the peak summit. 10.6 miles, 2641' gain with its own Route & Place.

Wigwam Trail (USFS #609) - 11.3 miles, 600' gain (one-way) from this TH with its own Route & Place.
