🧭 Know before you go

If attempting the summit of Longs Peak, the Keyhole route is not a hike... it is a climb. The route crosses enormous vertical rock faces, is exposed to falling rock, and requires scrambling on all fours. The route has narrow ledges, loose rock, and steep cliffs. Depending on conditions, you might encounter snow and ice any time of the year. Camp safely away from standing dead trees as close to the silver metal arrowhead as possible. Carry in/out hard sided bear-resistant food storage canister required. NO FIRES, Fires Prohibited, Use portable stoves only. Purify water. Leave No Trace. Lightning and wind hazard. Be alert and prepared. Be off summits early in the day.

🧭 Booking asks for a Starting Area first — choose Bear Lake, then find the Boulder Brook Group [Waste Bag] row for your dates.
