Today we will do one of our favorite hikes/trail runs in an area called Ashcroft. We will plan to meet at the American Lake trailhead at 9:00. For those who want to hike, it’s a 3 mile hike up to American lake. This is a steep trail into a high alpine lake that starts off in one of the best Aspen groves around. Those who want to run will continue, ‘August adventure style,’ up to Electric Pass and then descend to Cathedral Lake before returning to the valley floor.
