10 miles, 4200' elevation gain Join the cooler Sunday trip up Jefferson! We'll be taking the Castle trail past the Castles to the top of Jefferson. We'll reach treeline after 3.5 miles and, if the weather and time cooperate, hike the remaining 1.5 miles to the summit.
You should be prepared to cover your entire face with googles and a balaclava.
