Absolutely stunning!! A short hike that is completely satisfying. The hike is very rocky and uphill. But the view is spectacular. I would hike up there every day if I could. The pictures I took don't even do it justice. If you're in the Idaho springs area, add this to the top of your list!!

Nice little 1.5-2 mile hike to the glacier/lake area. If you're up to it, you may hike to the tops for better views and beauty all around. Best part of the hike was all the lush trees so plenty of shade during your journey up/down.

Awesome time snowshoeing up St. Mary's Glacier. It's challenging though so be prepared. Views are amazing and lots of pretty sites along the trail. Not too crowded when we were there.
