Snow shoeing is fun and we know some of the best areas to go. Since the trail is covered in snow and there aren't any markings, its good to have a guide who knows where to go and how not to get lost.
Itinerary
Hessie Trailhead
We will drive from Denver an hour and a half past Nederland to get deep in Rockies to where the trailhead is. From there we can hike up to lost lake which is a 4 mile round trip and takes about 3 hours or less total.
If we want an easier hike that's closer to Denver, we also go do a 3.5 mile hike around a Bison preserve which not only has great views too, but you have also the chance of seeing Bison up close if they are near the fence.
If the trail is already packed down we can also have the option of using micro spikes instead of the snow shoes. No extra cost either way and microspikes can make it easier in long run too. We also provide hiking poles and gators so snow doesn't get into your boots.
We can have a sandwich, snacks and chips at the lake before heading back downhill to the van and then an hour and a half back to Denver.
Snow shoeing is fun and I know some of the best areas to go. We realize many people come from lower elevations so this is a good option. Since the trail is covered in snow and there aren't any markings, its good to have a guide who knows where to go and how not to get lost. Hope to see you soon!
