ng Country Have Top day ride: For a Rocky Mountain high,
take a day ride to the 10,016-foot Hummingbird
Peak. Go about a half-mile south from
camp to the intersection with Trail #84,
then take that trail going left. It’s a climb of
2,800 feet and about 2½ hours to the top.
The trail goes through subalpine and, finally,
alpine conditions.
We tied our horses and walked the last distance
to the mountaintop, where we enjoyed
expansive views in all directions. Peer into the
cirque-like Telephone Basin, across the Buffalo
Fork, and to the Absaroka Divide.
