I’m planning on hiking to Willow Lake tomorrow starting early and I was wondering if there’s any risk of avalanche on that trail. Maybe someone’s been there recently and has seen the conditions?

Weather in the San Juans: late September backpack to crater lakes

We're looking at a repeat trip to the San Juans for late September. Will be driving from north Carolina, so need to plan ahead for gear. Wanting to backpack to the crater lakes for an overnight. What kind of temps and weather should we plan for?

Foothill trails with mild scrambling

I did mount Morrison as one of my first trails after moving to Colorado last year. I was intimidated by it and was super proud of myself for getting through it without turning back. I remember just standing before the scrambles for like ten minutes to work up the courage to do it. Yesterday I returned to it for my first hike of spring and just found it a great warm up. The scrambling was just fun. I did Longs Peak in July, so I think that more than anything helped conquer scrambling fears.

Anyway I was just wondering if there were any other similar trails along the front I could try to get in some more scrambling while the snow melts further in the mountains.
