Mount Alice

Mount Alice is a mountain peak in Rocky Mountain National Park that rises to about 13,300 feet (4,050 meters). It forms part of the northern Front Range and draws climbers looking for routes with scrambling and exposed sections.

The peak appeared on official maps in the early 1900s, with local stories linking its name to a woman connected to the area. This naming has remained part of climber lore and regional history.

The peak represents a destination for mountaineers who seek to complete their collection of Colorado thirteeners through technical climbing routes.

Access to the peak begins from Wild Basin Trailhead via a round trip hike of about 18 miles through challenging terrain requiring scrambling skills. Start early and prepare for changing mountain weather conditions.

The summit has two distinct access routes that each present different technical challenges and expose climbers to varied terrain. Many experienced mountaineers piece together both paths as a loop to experience the full range of climbing styles.
