The name of this trail might feel a little misleading, because the official trail doesn't go all the way up to the summit of Minerva Mountain. Instead, it passes close by on the slopes of Minerva Mountain, then continues on to tag the peaks of Juno Mountain and Ward Mountain.

This trail can also be linked up with the Perseverance Trail, to create a long, challenging alpine traverse that requires a car shuttle to get from one trailhead to the other. Only expert hikers who are prepared to be self-sufficient in the face of unpredictable weather and wildlife encounters should attempt this traverse.
