Mountaineering Highlight

Tips
What a view!... From the north, Sunset Peak can be climbed via the Brighton Ski Resort – 5.62 miles (9.04 km) round trip – 1,936 feet (approx. 600 m) elevation gain on well-maintained (mountain) trails, past three wonderful mountain lakes (Lake Mary = the first lake, more of a reservoir), Lake Martha, and Lake Catharina, and then over the pass to the summit. 360° views, and there's room to "relax" at the summit too. A second alternative route leads from the west
via the Catherine Pass Trailhead – 3.88 miles (6.24 km) round trip – 1,440 feet (approx. 450 m) elevation gain. There's a fee for this, but it offers wonderful views right from the start...it's worth it!translated by
