Black Crater

Best hike yet- much less crowded than Black Butte and amazing views! It is super windy at the top, but there is a rocky spot

The trailhead was super easy to find, and the trail wasn’t crowded on a weekday. Be advised that 80% of the trail is through burned

Great day for a hike up black crater. One snow field, but we skirted around it instead of crossing. Always good views! Haven't been there

What a gorgeous day, making for a stunning hike and unforgettable summit. We started at the Black Crater trailhead, found off Mackenzie Pass. While there

What beauty to enjoy from amazing colorful butterflies to the beautiful sounds of the birds singing! We saw the vibrant colors of the wild flowers

Arrived at trailhead ~2pm, hot/dry/dusty though the burn, windy and cooler at summit. Snowfields on North side above 6k, microspikes and/or trekking poles are useful.
