Planning on hiking up East Maroon Wilderness Portal and camping on that trail, then going through Triangle Pass and coming down Conundrum Creek Trail the next day for a 21-mile horseshoe loop.

I called the ranger station to ask about the difficulty of Triangle Pass and the Copper Pass Spur Trail but didn’t get a detailed answer. I have a bear canister and are aware of the permit zones and fire elevation limits.

Does anyone here have experience with Triangle Pass or this specific loop? AllTrails has limited reviews. I am comfortable with a Class 2 bordering on Class 3, but wouldn’t want to be caught in something more difficult than intended. I know my limits and know that I can always turn around, but if that’s going to the be the case I’d rather choose another trail.

Thank you in advance, and happy hiking! I posted my route in case the names don’t ring a bell.
