Itinerary description
Along San Juan Skyway between Silverton and Durango, Snowdon Peak is a mountain both challenging and accessible. This track follows its standard “northeast ridge” route, which was rated as class 2/3 online, but personally I think it’s a proper YDS class 3. Part of the challenge has to do with route finding, as the path deviates from the ridgeline to avoid a sudden drop at Naked Lady Couloir.
