While most people shudder at the thought of hiking in the winter, literally and figuratively, there’s no denying that Mount Elmore makes for an absolutely beautiful and breathtaking hike when the snow starts to fall.

Though an early morning hike will certainly require the use of snowshoes, the trail is actually quite popular, so the need for clunky snowshoes on a mid-day hike is highly unlikely. Nature lovers taking on this trail can expect an easy climb with a gentle elevation gain with the exception of a short steep climb near the top of the summit.

The Elmore Mountain Trail will lead visitors straight to the summit, where they can give the fire tower a climb to soak up the exceptional image of snow-capped mountain ranges. Mount Elmore
