Why it works

The Collegiate Peaks Wilderness contains four 14ers — Harvard, Columbia, Yale, and Oxford — that are among the most popular in Colorado due to their relatively straightforward approach routes from Buena Vista. Accurate trail and route mapping is essential for navigating the approach drainages and ridge connections between summits. Waterproof construction survives the Sawatch Range's afternoon thunderstorms that are a constant hazard on the exposed 14er ridgelines.

Ideal for

Peak baggers, backpackers, and wilderness hikers exploring the Collegiate Peaks Wilderness and its four 14ers in the central Sawatch Range. See also NGTI129 (Buena Vista, Collegiate Peaks) for broader area coverage and NGTIB222 (Collegiate Peaks & Eagles Nest GMU Bundle) for hunting coverage.
