Mount Sherman
It was very very windy.
Redemption Hike, we tried to do this trail in June but the trail was pretty hard to navigate and we had a pretty late start…
This hike was redemption for us! We had attempted this hike back in June and couldn’t complete it due to snow. This time, however, the…
Outstanding day. Started at the trailhead at 6:15 AM, only a couple of other cars. Weather war marvelous, summited by 9AM, clear sky and almost…
This was my first time hiking Mt Sherman with snow on the cornice and intermittent spots on the talus and scree fields. Took advantage of…
My first 14-er in the books! It was great! Weather and trail conditions where very nice. Some small patches of snow, but very passable.
Left from Iowa Gulch there was some snow and ice on the trail, wind kicked in once you reached the saddle.
Day 1/ Hike 2 of 2 Back to back after Mt. Yale! Very cool trail with train station rails and mines. Short & sweet but…
A great fourteener to start with, Sherman is an easier one because you start at 12k feet above tree line. The knife’s edge section right…
First solo 14er! Some areas with snow/ice, but can be avoided with alternate route.
Fun hike, first 14er! The beer at the top certainly hit me harder than I would have expected 🙂 Trail was a bit busy but…
This was the last peak on the challenge for me and was more tiring than I expected. Other than a short walk through a field…
It was epic day for my final 6-pack prak, Mt Sherman. At the very end of the hike, literaly right b4 getting back to the…
Chilly day for hiking! More abandoned mining by the trail. Can’t say it’s easy 14ers but it’s shortest 14ers in CO. Met other sixpackofpeaks participants…
So, I hope this hike counts since I took a slightly different route to summit. On this day, I went for the summits of both…
We took the trail to the right which leads you over a steep climb over loose rocks. The rest of the trail is fairly easy…
As promised, my wife hiked this one with me. It was so great to have her along and it was her first CO 14er! Congratulations…
We had a wild day on the mountain today. This was actually the second time I tried to do this mountain. The first time we…
We began this hike in headlamps and had many happy hikers follow our lead in the dark morning time. This summit felt like we were…
A few more people on this hike, being that it’s a 14er. Also a lot more wind! Glad NE taught us to be prepared for…
Sherman was a lot busier than Horseshoe, but that’s to be expected with a 14er. Still surprised by how many people didn’t know it was…
This was one of the easiest 14’ers I have climbed. There were even some trail runners that utilize this trail too. There was a snow…
We were the first to the trailhead, however, not the first to start hiking. We were up in no time at all, not necessarily easy…
Started at 5:45am. Hike up past the gate was steep as it starts right at 12k ft. But incline was not too bad as I…
Set out at 3 a.m. from just behind the gate, and there were about 8-9 others on the trail. Mining roads crisscrossing the trail makes…
The snowstorm we got last week is still very much a part of Mt Sherman. Winds were insanely high, some snow up to my knee,…
I had been saving this peak for some friends visiting from Missouri; give them a chance to do a 14er. Ended up taking them 4…
While I intended to do the peaks in order, a major wrong-turn in the Collegiate Wilderness thwarted my ascent of Birthday Peak. Not wanting to…
New 14er to add to the books. They say it’s the easiest but no 14er is easy. Great road trail most of the way up.…
