Attention site users: Climb13ers stands at a critical juncture and needs your help. In this digital age, websites and software soon become outdated. We need to make some immediate, costly upgrades to this site to keep it running smoothly and without interruptions to service. Neither my wife or I have the necessary skills to do this on our own, thus, we must hire skilled people to maintain the site for us. That is why we solicit your donations. As of now, we are anticipating up to $5,000 in additional costs to make these upgrades. We invite and encourage all users, but especially those who have never donated before to please consider making a donation now. To the less than 1 percent of users who have supported this site, we thank you for your faithful giving. Please encourage other users you may know to do likewise. Just 200 users giving only $25 each would meet this goal. Please be one of those 200. Use the “Donate” button now and make a secure donation via SquareUp.
Pika Peak (Now UN13,130, previously UN 13126) is somewhat equally located between the Western Slope and the Front Range with an access off I-70 and Eagle. The peak combines well with "Gold Dust Peak" for a day hike from the Fulford Cave TH. Two wheel vehicles can make it to the trailhead but the last two miles of road get rougher and a vehicle with some additional ground clearance will assure you make it to the TH. Much of the hike is on well-maintained trail and the climbing route is Class 2+. Lidar added 4 feet elevation to this summit.
