Situated in a forest yet still providing open views of the lake and surrounding mountains, the Ophir Mountain Trail System is an intertwining set of trails in the Frisco area. The trails are not as popular as some of the other trails in the area (such as Peak Trail, Rainbow Lake, etc.) and provide a sense of nature just at the edge of town.

Of course, at 3102 m, Ophir Mountain isn't a "big" climb, but the trails to the summit are quite challenging...there's a network of hiking trails here that leads through "forest" and across forest regeneration meadows...we found a charming trail today!!! The mountain offers wonderful views from the summit...of the Dillon Reservoir, the surrounding mountains, several 14,000-meter peaks, and the Ten Mile Range. The loop is relatively short, but has a significant elevation change with very steep sections (both up and down). Today, significant areas are used by the Forest Service, initially to reduce the risk of wildfires, but later also to "regenerate the natural forest" (sometimes it looks like an uncontrolled forest landslide...the timber just stays there; cross-country? no chance!). Today, the rain finally caught up with us, but it could have been worse, considering the neighboring mountains...it's worth it!
