The National Forest Foundation, Colorado Fourteeners Initiative, Friends of the Dillon Ranger District, Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado, Wildland Restoration Volunteers and Rocky Mountain Youth Corps invite the public to celebrate Quandary Peak\u2019s marked improvement in trail sustainability with a celebratory hike on the peak Friday, June 21.<\/p>\n

In 2017, the National Forest Foundation, the U.S. Forest Service and other partners launched the Find Your Fourteener campaign to address needed trail maintenance at Quandary and other iconic Colorado peaks. The campaign\u2019s goal is to increase the pace and scale of improvements to sustainable recreation opportunities on Colorado\u2019s 14ers. Quandary was considered a priority area due to very high use that was degrading the trail as well as Forest Service budget cuts forcing prioritization of funds elsewhere.<\/p>\n

To celebrate, an organized hike will take place June 21. A shuttle will pick up hikers at the Breckenridge Satellite Parking Lot at the far end of Airport Road. For those hiking to the summit, there will be a shuttle available in Breckenridge at 6 a.m. Those seeking to hike partway can take a shuttle at 9 a.m. Shuttle and hiking details will be sent to those who RSVP at NationalForests.org\/get-involved\/events\/quandary-peak-celebration<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Following the hike, or for those who just want to party, there will be a celebration at 2 p.m. at Broken Compass Brewery, 68 Continental Court, in Breckenridge.<\/p>\n
