Two information boards and a medium sized parking lot are located at the American Basin Trailhead. This is a great starting point to summit Handies Peak since you are already pretty high up in elevation. To get here though, you should have a car with high-clearance and 4x4.

The upper trailhead requires a capable vehicle to access, usually a high clearance 4WD vehicle but you may make it in an SUV if the conditions are good. From here you can hike up stunning American Basin to Handies Peak and the Hardrock 100 route.
