Mount Massive
Although Mount Massive is Colorado’s second highest summit, with an elevation of 14,421 feet, it is readily accessible to hikers, thanks to a 7-mile hiking route that climbs all the way to the summit. Like its neighbor, 14,433-foot Mount Elbert, the summit of Mount Massive provides some of the most impressive vistas to be found anywhere in the Lower Forty-eight states. The hikes up both peaks begin at adjacent trailheads on Halfmoon Creek Road.
