Hike to Lake Peak

Description
Are you ready for a nice, long day hike in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains? Join Zack Baker with PEEC and the Los Alamos Mountaineers for this beautiful hike to Lake Peak. Participants will meet at the Nature Center at 6:30 or Santa Fe Ski Basin parking lot (Winsor Trailhead) at 8 am. Expected return to the trailhead is 3pm.

About the Outing:

Starting at Santa Fe Ski Basin, the group will ascend the ski area, hike to Lake Peak, and then return via Winsor Trail (not the longer option of hiking down Skyline Trail). Expect spectacular fall scenery and the finest views so close to Santa Fe. It's a long, but non-technical hike, so the group will start early. Total distance is 8 miles round-trip with about 3,000 feet of elevation gain. The morning may be chilly, so bring light layers and a raincoat in case of precipitation. Bring plenty of water, snacks, and a lunch. It is approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes drive from Los Alamos to the trailhead.

Admission: Free for PEEC or LAM Members; $5 for Non-Members.
