The area is known for high peaks looming over alpine lakes and tundras. Although the James Peak Wilderness is a great place to hike because of its scenic lakes, hikers typically visit during the summer. The area receives heavy snowfall during the winter, making the trails difficult to traverse and endure.
Elevations range from 9,000 to 13,000 ft and with the added panoramic views of the alpine lakes, the James Peak Wilderness is still a great hiking destination despite the limited availability.
