* 20 hikes in a Wilderness Area just west of Fort Collins that abuts Rocky Mountain National Park * A wide range of hikes, from easy half-day routes to two-day backpack excursions over mountain passes * Complete trail descriptions, color photos, and maps The Comanche Peak Wilderness Area is characterized by rolling tundra hills, vast evergreen forests, tumbling mountain streams, and miles of quiet, peaceful trails. Located thirty-five miles west of Fort Collins, this wilderness encompasses 67,000 acres. Each trail description includes a comment section by the authors that reviews the features of the route, followed by detailed instructions on how to find the trailhead and precise route instructions. Each description includes a topographical map and color photos of the trail. Trail descriptions start out with basic information such as the length of the route, elevation range, difficulty, and the season when the trail is most easily hiked. Note that many of these trails are also excellent for snowshoeing in the winter.
