LIZARD HEAD: Initially this trail climbs steeply
in to the Lizard Head Wilderness through spruce
and fir and up to Blackface Ridge. Far reaching
views of the San Juan Mountains can be seen from
this vantage. A good portion of this trail is above
timberline and exposed to lightning during thunderstorms. Eventually the trail contours directly under
Lizard Head Peak, which is a prominent rock feature
standing by itself at 13,113 feet. At this point there
is a trail junction with the Cross Mountain trail and
the Bilk Basin section of the Lizard Head trail. This
is a strenuous hike rewarded by incredible scenic
beauty. From Telluride drive about 3 miles to Highway 145 (Society Turn). Turn left heading south for
about 11 miles to Lizard Head Pass. There is a rest
area and interpretive site on the right side of the
highway. Turn in to the rest area. The trailhead is
above the main parking area on the right.
Trail length: Lizard Head to Cross Mountain 9
miles. Lizard Head to Wilson Mesa (Bilk Creek) 10

Telluride's Via Ferrata is not for the faint-hearted. At its most intense, you're suspended on a small iron foothold by a harness at 500 feet. You need a harness, helmet and two tethers w carabiner for this hike. The newly-legal climbing route is technical, breathtaking and exposed on the East end and South-facing wall of Telluride's boxed canyon. If you do decide to partake in this incredible experience, please be safe! Guided hikes are offered too: https://www.telluride.com/plan/business-directory/mountain-trip/
Via Ferrata routes are quite common in Europe. They began in World War I as a means to move troops and equipment over difficult mountainous terrain. Via Ferrata is Italian for Iron Way, and refers to installing iron steps and other aids up difficult rock sections of peaks in the mountains. There are a few Via's in the US, but they are not nearly as common as in Europe.
