Overview

This is a moderate loop trail to Mount Democrat, Mount Cameron, Mount Lincoln, and Mount Bross.

Challenging hike that has you at ~14,000 ft for a good portion of the hike. The trail is well marked until Bross which can be a little confusing but as long as you walk towards the east side of the peak you will see the trail down. This hike is typically done clockwise which allows for the scramble on Bross to be done downhill.

Getting Started

The road is navigable from the main highway in most vehicles with a little caution as there are ruts and rocks.

There are a number of camping spots at the lake which are only allowed in designated spaces. Some distance from the lake camping is allowed in non-designated spots. Bathrooms are available at the trailhead parking lot.

The trail leads across the creek and up from the parking lot.

Taking Children

This is a challenging hike but little to no technical sections.

    Sunny day, path was well-marked and maintained! Path down from Bross was a little steep and slippery, but other than that an all around great hike

    This course was my first 14ers knocked off the list. My buddies and I got up at 2AM and first lighted Democrat and had breakfast. The hike wasn’t very bad at all for me but I am a hiking guide in New Mexico and accustomed to the altitude. Every Mountain View was well worth the hike and I would do it again, but Lincoln is by far the best view in my opinion. If I were to do it again I would try and either sunrise Bross or Lincoln to get a different view.

    Challenging but great way to check off four 14ers in a single hike with amazing views in all directions.

Got hit with spicy storm clouds and fog, as well as the strongest winds I've ever experienced. Blessed to have persevered and complete the loop
