Cold Springs Trail
This two-way trail stretches across 2,500 vertical feet on the mountain's south face. The trail works its way through the wildflowers to Clear Creek Lookout. Here you can catch your breath while enjoying a stunning view of the Pioneer Mountains. The lower portions of the trail meanders through the lush woods that Sun Valley's smaller natives, like chipmunks and squirrels, call home.
