Mount Bierstadt
#37About Mount Bierstadt
Mount Bierstadt stands at 14,066 feet (4,287 m) as one of the most popular and accessible 14ers. The standard West Slopes route is short and non-technical, making it an excellent choice for first-time 14er climbers. Its proximity to Denver and ease of access result in heavy traffic, especially on summer weekends.
History
Named after American landscape painter Albert Bierstadt, whose works often featured Rocky Mountain scenes, the peak has become one of the most climbed mountains in Colorado. The relatively easy route sees thousands of hikers each year.
