Lab Favorites

Here are some of our lab favorites:

• Favorite hikes:
  • Sheep Mountain Wildlife Management Area, Wyoming
  • Twin Crater lakes- Rawah wilderness area, From West Branch trailhead on Laramie River road. An hour and a half from campus. Wonderful hike that traverses through a number of different habitat types to two high alpine lakes.
  • Sugarloaf recreation area-Snowy Range. Wonderful location in the Snowy Range. Drive to over 10,000 feet with many great hikes. Perfect way to see high alpine area without a hard hike up a mountain. Favorite hike —12 mile loop-Gap Lakes- to Sheep Lake-to Brooklyn lake-back to Sugarloaf parking area/Lewis Lake
  • Loop Hike near CSU mountain campus http://www.backpacker.com/trips/colorado/fort-collins-co-comanche-peak-wilderness-loop/ Fun overnight backpacking destination or one crazy day (like some lab members did Sep 2016!).
