The Best Fort Collins Hikes: A Colorado Mountain Club Pack Guide
By John Gascoyne

 

Twenty of the best hikes within an hour or so of Fort Collins, Colorado, selected, described, and photographed by members of the Fort Collins Group of CMC.

 

• A wide variety of trails, from urban strolls to alpine adventures.

 

• A handy CMC Pack Guide with complete trail descriptions, color photos, maps, and commentary.

 

• Trails for hikers, bikers, and snowshoers.



The Best Fort Collins Hikes was written by CMC members for a wide range of readers—from experienced hikers who already know much of the local scene to visiting flatlanders who want to enjoy the best of the area. The descriptions range from very easy walks, to a number of moderate hikes, and a few of the difficult and demanding variety.

Sixteen Fort Collins Group CMC members became involved with the book at its very beginning. The 20 trails were selected by group consensus and chapter members functioned as individual trail authors, photographers and cartographers.

The contributors brought their own expertise and enthusiasm as well as outdoor interests into the hikes. One trail description may say a good deal about geology and natural history while the next one may emphasize the wildflowers that will be found on a particular hike.
