Bristol Head Peak is planned for August 16th. Plan to meet at the Quality Inn in South Fork at 8:30am with lunch, snacks, water and a full tank of gas. This road is about 15 miles long (one way) and is rated as easy. It does gain over 2500 feet in elevation and the top offers a magnificent panoramic view of the entire area. We have done this trail before several years ago. If time allows, we can explore the side trip to Crystal Lake.

Contact Lester and Ruth with questions.

This will be end of our explorations in the South Fork area. Plan to leave Quality Inn in South fork with all the usual items. We’ll follow a series of forest service roads up and over Ellwood Pass and return to pavement on US160 on East Fork Trail. From there we’ll follow 160 to Durango and then back to Montrose. This trail is rated as moderate but am not sure of the length. The more difficult section will be coming down from the pass.
