Summit County Colorado Hiking Trails
Quandary Peak Trail #47
|
|
White
River National Forest
Widely regarded as one of the easier "14'ers" to
summit, the 3.11 mile Quandary Peak Trail travels (as the name would
indicate) to the summit of Quandary Peak where great views of the Tenmile
and Gore Ranges are available to the north. Looking to the east Grays Peak
(14,270') and Torreys Peak (14,267') are visible, while to the south is a
fantastic view of the South Park Ranger District. Mount of the Holy Cross
(14,005) is visible to the west. |

| To reach Quandary Peak Trail from
I-70 for Frisco/Breckenridge and travel south along Highway 9 toward
Breckenridge Colorado. Travel through Breckenridge and continue 7.3 miles
past the last traffic light (Boreas Pass Road). After passing through the
town of Blue River, turn right onto Blue Lakes Road (FR 850). Turn right
onto McCullough Gulch Road (FR 851) about 0.1 mile from Highway 9. |
