This Legendary San Juan Mountain 14er Adventure hike takes us up the Sublime Yankee Boy Basin during Peak Flower season complete with Countless Waterfalls defining this Deep Drainage hike. The Switzerland of America sign in Ouray CO is not an exaggeration!! From there, a Short Steep climb leads us past Wright's Lake and deposits us on the Stunning Blue Lakes Pass and at the foot of Mount Sneffels' Tower Studded Southwest Ridge!
Steep Talus & a Winding Path with sections of Class 3 scrambling thread the Towers and Gullies terminating at the Base of a Clean, Solid & Exposed Class 3 Ridge Leading to Sneffel's Summit all in the midst of highly exposed World Class views! Though you can stay off the ridge proper just east if continuous exposure is not what you're looking for. From there we descend the Standard Route, very briefly down the south face, then angling east over a small class 3 step and into Lavender Cole, a Large Saddle capping a huge loose gully leading to the Yankee Boy Basin and 4WD Trailhead.
