    Tips

    July 21, 2023

    Gibbs is a great peak for those looking for a Colorado mountain experience with the inclusion of some fun class 2 scrambling. The upper quarter mile of "trail" involves some route finding and is steep enough to call for the use of hands at times. Once on the ridge to the 12,286-foot summit, you are rewarded with 360 degree views of the La Plata Mountains.
