Note that the meeting time has changed from what was originally posted. Meet at The Fort Restaurant at 5:45 am for a prompt 6:00 am departure. No rest stop is planned because there are restrooms at the trailhead. The meeting time is early because the trailhead is shared with the busy Mt Bierstadt Trail.
This is a short ramble with little elevation gain to the pretty Square Top Lakes at the foot of Square Top Mountain. A perfect hike for those who would like an easy hike above treeline. The pace will allow for time for photos and rest stops.
