| no partners | | This is a 10.2-mile loop with an accumulated elevation gain of approximately 2,265'
There are a total of 5 creek crossings, 4 different, each with their own degree of challenge. You'll cross one crossing twice.
The nearby Galena Recreation Visitor Center has indoor plumbing & clean bathrooms. The trailhead has vault type toilets.
Within the first 2 miles, you hike up past 6 switchbacks until you reach the summit/overlook at 8,117'. This is a popular turn around point. There is a trail sign directing you on up to Church's Pond, or pointing you to continue the loop hike.
Carry sufficient additional clothing & rain gear in case the weather changes. I suggest 2 liters of water + snacks as you will be out hiking a good 6.5 hours.
This is a Wilderness area which means no Mountain Bikes or motorized vehicles. |
