Hiked North & South Twin Cones and Blaine. A nice little solo jaunt. Didn't like seeing the high wind advisory signs on the drive to the TH, but ended up being not so bad.

Did N. Twin Cone as part of a huge 14 peak loop hike that took 16.5 hours. Summitted late in the afternoon as a storm was approaching. See TR.

Hiked North Twin Cone Peak, Mount Blaine, and South Twin Cone Peak from Kenosha Pass. Saw no other hikers, although did see some ATVers on North Twin while we were on Blaine. If I was to do this again, I'd probably drive past the first gate and park just past the second gate.

There was little snow to worry about, about the only snow was right near the summit of North Twin Cone. Otherwise the ground seemed unusually dry after so much snow this winter.

CMC hike. We started from Kenosha Pass and hiked the North Twin Cone Road almost all the way to the top. We left the road about a mile from the summit and snowshoed through a couple of nice meadows. It was pretty windy at the summit, not so much further down. We made really good time: about 7 hours round trip.

Great trail, total solitude. Beautiful sunny weather, very windy on the summit. Can't wait to do this in snowshoes soon!

Made the summit on a very, very cold and windy day. Pleasant in the trees, brutal wind on the peak.

A very nice hike with outstanding views of Front Range mountains to the north. A lot of great color in the aspen groves on the lower slopes. Maybe the best "color hike" close to Denver.

Had itchy feet and decided to make the hike in the dark. The easy to follow 4WD road made the hike a breeze. I didn't find the shortcut around 11,300 and instead followed the road until I could see the peak. I only hiked North Twin Cone, but had amazing views with the moonlight and clear skies.

My first Twin Cone summit was South Twin Cone (along with Mount Blain) in May. Subsequently I have been up North Twin Cone twice. North Twin Cone is an excellent winter excursion... just don't forget the sunblock! Last time I went up it I started in a snow squall which gave way to sunny skies... I can feel the melonoma festering...
