BLarsonFL Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Can anyone give me some info on the best times to climb Colfax peak. We are looking to combine this with a North Ridge climb on My Baker. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 if you are talking about the easiest way up, I would say the spring time before summer exposes all kinds of nasty rock. I have climbed n ride baker in ealry may and it was good. Colfax should be fine that time too, weather permitting. If you are talking about the ice line on colfax, no idea how long that season lasts. I saw that Roger Strong climbed it this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLarsonFL Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 One additional question. Did you have any issues with accessibility to the trailhead. Is the road open in May? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
genepires Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 usually open by may. depending on how much snow we get this winter (currently getting plenty) you may have to walk a little bit to get to actual TH. they don't plow it for a opening date. just melt out.
