Want to challenge yourself to climb some of Colorado's tallest peaks? Attempting these peaks is an excellent way to immerse yourself in gorgeous mountainous terrain for a full day of adventure. Since there is no such thing as an easy “fourteener” (14,000 ft or 4,300 m peak) our guides will help to minimise risk while maximising enjoyment with an understanding of local weather patterns, a thorough knowledge of trail conditions, and keeping morale high. We suggest a minimum age of 12 years and strong physical condition for all trying to summit. 14'er peaks are closer to Silverthorne, Breckenridge, and Copper Mountain.

Quandary Peak - Our Local 14'er
Quandary Peak (14,265 ft) offers easy trailhead access, a straightforward yet challenging hike, and stunning 360-degree views of Summit County and its Tenmile Range. Our local 14'er standard trail boasts about 3,500 feet (1,060 m) of elevation gain and loss over a 7-mile (11.27 km) return. Join us this summer for an ascent of Colorado’s 13th highest peak!

Grays Peak and optional Torreys Peak Ascent
Grays Peak (14,270 ft) and Torreys Peak (14,267 ft) are two 14'ers that are often climbed in the same outing by traversing their connecting ridgeline. From their summits, expansive views open up east towards the Front Range and west towards Summit County. Our route options are located on the south side and offer a less crowded experience compared to the popular Stevens Gulch Trailhead. Both options are based off of Peru Creek road near the towns of Keystone and Montezuma.

Double 14'er Ascent: Looking to get the best bang for your buck? Go for a double 14er summit and add Torreys Peak to the list! Torreys Peak is accessed via an out and back on the connecting ridge from Grays. Adding on Torreys to your trip adds an extra 1.5 miles and 1,000 feet of vertical.
