Description Suggest change

Navajo is on the Divide, about 2 mi north of N. Arapaho [Peak]

Navajo is the cone-shaped peak visible from Brainard Lake, just SE of Apache. The large snowfield below the right side of the peak is one of several good moderate snow routes on Navajo and Apache. Navajo has a small amount of low fifth class climbing on it's north face, and a separate 65ft 5.5 pinnacle below its north face called Dicker's Peck.

Getting There Suggest change

The Brainard Lake Trailhead is off of Hwy 72 North on Nederland. It is a fee area, $6 per time, $25 season. There are two trailheads, the Long Lake side goes towards Navajo, the Mitchell Lake side goes towards Mt. Toll. These trailheads are at 10,500 feet.
