The Hell's Hole Trail is about 3.5 miles long (one way) and is rated as More Difficult.
Trailhead Location: Six and a half miles south of Idaho Springs on Highway 103, take the West Chicago Creek Road for three miles. The trailhead starts where the road ends, just walk straight ahead through the Chicago Creek Picnic Area. After traveling along West Chicago Creek for about a mile, the trail climbs at a steady pace through a large grove of aspen trees. The second and third miles are less steep but quite rocky. Where the trail ends at Hell's Hole, the area opens into a meadow where alpine willows grow at the base of Gray Wolf Mountain. |
