Description

A very easy uphill on a well established trail. Access the trailhead from the end of Caribou Road, and begin your fairly mellow ascent. To begin, you'll follow a wide path that acts as a dirt road in the summer months. Just shy of a mile, you'll start to diverge from the road and start to more directly move toward the summit of Klondike Mountain.
