Today we drove up Old Stage Road and Gold Camp Road, to the St. Peter’s Dome trailhead (Duffield’s Overlook). This is a short hike, but was more challenging today with about 6-10 inches of snow on the trail. I was prepared with waterproof hiking shoes, gaiters and microspikes, and layers to stay warm.

Almost at the top, there’s a bit of rock scrambling necessary. A rope is there for assistance, although I don’t know how old it is. I didn’t want to leave Samadhi by herself, so decided not to climb up the rope.

We also took a short walk down a closed off old section of Gold Camp Road, and got this photo of St. Peters Dome from there:

Sorry, no map. After recent changes to Google Maps, much functionality seems to be missing.

UPDATE on 11/14/2015:
I went back to St. Peters Dome on 9/26/2015, climbed the rope and reached the top. Here’s a photo looking back at Colorado Springs from St Peters Dome.
