Colorado Trip: Twin Sisters Peak

 From June 2021

We woke at sunrise on June 12th to get an early hiking start.  Callie stayed behind in her crate inside the Scamp since dogs aren't permitted on the trails inside the national park.

Twin Sisters Peak trailhead was only seven miles from Olive Ridge campground.  This was a 7.5 mile hike with 2,516 feet of elevation gain.  


The trail started out fairly flat but then gradually climbed through the forest.  


There's was still some snow in the trees.

On the second half of the hike, we emerged from the trees and started seeing some spectacular views.


11, 418 feet

We celebrated at the campsite with a good bottle of wine and dinner.
