All-Year Rounds
Choose the best month for the ideal experience
Align activities with safer, lower-impact windows: avalanche checks in cold season, blossoms in spring, cool mornings in warm months, and quieter ridgelines in fall.

Winter Season
Follow designated snow paths and review avalanche advisories prior to your trip. Keep dogs on a leash and steer clear of tranquil areas.
Check safety bulletin
Spring
Late spring brings bloom season to many valleys: dodge muddy edges to stop trail expansion, and hike at dawn for wildlife.
Summer Season
Begin early for access to glaciers, swim only in approved zones, and think about microspikes for early snowfields.
Autumn Season
Golden woods and cooler dawns lead to gentler treks. Opt for less busy shelters and stick to sturdy trails.
