    Hiking

    The Missouri Gulch Trailhead marks the starting point for a variety of trails. In the summer and fall months, this trailhead starts to overflow before the sun even comes up due to people hiking one or more of the three 14ers that are easily accessible from this trailhead (Missouri Mountain, Mount Belford, and Mount Oxford). Because this large parking lot often overflows, there is extra parking in some pull offs both before and after this parking lot on the main road. There's a vault toilet accessible here during the dry months.
