We have hiked a lot of trails in our area and some also in Utah, Colorado. I have organized the hikes according to the following order | State | County | ParkTrailhead |
Rating Systems
We use the same rating system of 1-10 to summarize both the Difficulty and Enjoyability of the hikes. Hikes rated with a 10/10 for enjoyability don't get any better. Hikes rated 10/10 for difficulty call into question weather we would have the strength and stamina to ever do this hike again.
