Pikes Peak
From Iowa. Looking at making the trip out to Colorado in a few weeks. Main bucket list hike is Pikes Peak via Barr Trail. Curious how the conditions are and if this hike is doable with the snowfall on top. Coming equipped with trekking poles, and looking into snow shoes/micro spikes if deemed necessary.

Whether "doable" depends on you! ...maybe maybe not, depending your fitness and experience.
