Mt. Sneffels is one of Colorado's 14ers. It is known for its excellent scenery and rugged terrain. This route is a classic variation from the standard approach and is more technical. Driving all the way to the trailhead requires a capable 4WD vehicle. You can park lower and hike the road if needed. A helmet is recommended as you will be scrambling over loose sharp rock. Most of the scrambling is class 2 with some class 3 climbing.
