Colorado'S Lost Creek Wldrns

Now, in Colorado's Lost Creek Wilderness: Classic Summit Hikes, Gerry Roach, one of the world's most renowned mountaineers and an authority on Colorado's fourteeners, and Jennifer Roach, an expert on the Lost Creek Wilderness, provide outdoor enthusiasts with the first-ever hiking guide to this beautiful area. The hikes in this guide all lead to the summit of peaks, and the summit hikes vary in difficulty from short romps to all-day efforts. The highest summits in the Lost Creek Wilderness rise only a few hundred feet above treeline, but the summit plateaus are special places. You can hike for hours through tree-filled meadows that eventually burst upon a private universe far above roads and cities.
