Pitkin County Colorado Hiking Trails

East Snowmass Trail #1977

White River National Forest

Available for hikers, & horseback riding, the 8.5 mile East Snowmass Trail begins ascending steeply and forks to the right in about a mile. Continuing through spruce, aspen & pine forest for about 3 miles, East Snowmass Trail then breaks out into a meadow before continuing a moderately steep climb. Once on East Snowmass Pass, the descent to Willow Lake is via switchbacks through a steep boulder field. The last mile travels through rolling tundra to Willow Lake.

To reach East Snowmass Trail from Aspen Colorado, travel west along Highway 82 for 6 miles and turn left onto Brush Creek Road. Continue along Brush Creek Road for 5.4 miles, turn right onto Divide Road which turns into a gravel road. The road descends steeply to the valley bottom where the road forks. Take the left fork. The trailhead is just beyond the wooden bridge on the left.
