Bear Peak Winter Hike, Boulder, Colorado @ruggedland

Uploaded January 2024 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Bear Peak is a prominent peak arising abruptly to 8,459’ just west of the city of Boulder, Colorado. It can be hiked year-round but can become crowded on weekends due to its popularity. I did this hike after a recent snow storm that saw air temperatures well below 0°F, and didn’t encounter anyone on the mountain. Total hiking stats: 5.2mi with 2,680’ elevation gain
