Meeker, Longs, and Mt. Lady Washington

This hike is not to be taken lightly, with 6.5 miles of trail to the summit, you will gain almost 4,000 ft. of elevation along the way. But, if you want to see the best of what Colorado has to offer, this hike is not to be missed.


Meeker, Longs, and Mt. Lady Washington

The hike begins at the Longs Peak Ranger Station, and follows the Longs Peak trail for most of the way. After 2 miles of hiking, you'll cross the Alpine Brook and enjoy the refreshing sound of water rushing past you.

Once past the Brook, keep on going, enjoying the wildlife, flowers, and other things of beauty along the trail. At 5.6 miles into the hike, you'll cross the Boulder Field. It's just that - a great big field with very large boulders. After that, hike along the ridge to your left and summit this amazing mountain, and you'll be rewarded with a truly amazing view.
