If you have extra time, this is a great hike. You can park at Aspen Grove or the Timpanooke campground parking lots and hike as high as you wish. There is usually snow on this mountain year-round, but it can usually be hiked from July to September. Note that there is a fee to park here and parking might not be available because of crowding in the summer months. Also note that hiking to the top of the mountain would be considered a strenuous (18-mile) hike and would be an all-day adventure.

This is a 45-minute drive from here and has massive springs coming out of the hill. It's a really great place. We last tried to go there 2 years ago (2019) and the road from the Alpine Loop was closed, but it may be open now. It's only open during the Summer months (May-October)
