Description

Hidden Lake has some very undeveloped granite climbing. There is one mixed slab route and some adventurous trad routes as of 2021. This page will be updated if any new information is available. Be prepared for a long hike for one or two routes.

Getting There

Find Duck Creek pass on the east side of Canyon Ferry Reservoir. Head up into the mountains.

Two approaches are available from the top of the pass. There is a 4x4 trail up there ridge to a microwave station - this trailhead is 3 miles from Hidden Lake. The other option (accessible for any vehicle) is from Gypsy Lake trailhead. This might be a 6ish mile hike... I've only done this hike one time - do your homework, I'm an unreliable source.

Hike to Hidden Lake. It's fairly easy to hike past Hidden Lake (hint: it's hidden) so pay attention.

Climbing is on the obvious granite on west side of the lake.
