Elliot's Ridge #1889

The Elliot Ridge Trail provides panoramic views of the area including the Gore Range. The trail is an old double-track road that follows a broad ridge and enters the Eagles Nest Wilderness Area. Meridian Peak is near the end of the ridge and is a great destination.

Another option is connecting with the Upper Cataract/Mirror Lake trail and dropping down into the Cataract drainage. High alpine meadows and exposed rock exist throughout the Elliott Ridge area. * There is a printable Recreation Quicksheet for this trail which is complete with directions, a map, details, and other information about this trail.
