Trail #1428 provides hikers with access to the summits of Mt. Shavano and Tabeguache Peak. This project is needed due to trail widening, erosion, and braiding high rec use and user-created routes causing impacts to alpine plants and soils.
Location
Mt. Shavano is located 12 miles northwest of the town of Salida, Colorado on the Salida RD of the PSICC. Tabeguache Peak is connected to Mt. Shavano via a one mile ridgeline.
