    Tips

    September 6, 2023

    Challenger Point (13907 ft), as the name says, can be very challenging. The hike up from Willow Lake is steep and has some patches of loose rock, this trail is recommended for experienced hikers. Make sure that your shoes are appropriate for alpine and rocky terrain, and it’s important to check the weather before going up as the climb should only be attempted with a good weather window.
