    Tips

    September 8, 2023

    Elbow Peak is reached via the multi-user Yellow Hill trail, but you have to work to reach the expansive views. The lack of shade makes this a hot hike, even on a cool day. The route climbs through a stark silver and black forest, burned in fires past, with a stunning wildflowers.

    Spring is the best time for flowers, views, and stillness. Avoid mid/late summer with the oppressive heat and motorcycles and be sure to wear orange in the fall with hunters.
