Hiking – Quandary Peak via West Ridge

UPDATE: We are now within the 3-day weather window which gives us a more reliable weather forecast in winter. It's showing dry conditions but we will have high winds in the early morning. I'd like to move back our meet/start time from 7am to 8am in the STANDARD Quandary parking lot just off Hwy 9. Let's go climb Quandary Peak, 14,272', the 14er next to Breckenridge via the Class 3 West Ridge route, this coming Saturday, November 8, 2025. We will climb the West Ridge route (Class 3) and descend the East Ridge route (Class 2).
