Mount Sherman Summit Ascent

Mount Sherman is one of Colorado’s most approachable 14ers and is a great starter for those looking to climb these mighty mountains. Though considered less difficult you still have to put in the work to get to the Summit which is guarded by a breathtaking catwalk ridge line that provides wonderful exposure not to mention hiking at 14,000 feet always presents a challenge. From the summit you will have breathtaking 360-degree views of the surrounding Rocky Mountains and will be glad you made the effort to get there!
