Backcountry Route hikes are only for the most advanced and experienced hikers. The trails featured as “routes” are generally not marked in the bush and have no posted signs. These routes are merely suggestions of how to get up the mountain. Advanced navigational skills will be required. A combination of GPS data, spatially referenced digital maps, as well as a compass will be necessary for the best success. There are no amenities in the wilderness. Never venture out into the back country without proper gear and emergency provisions.
Sibola Mountain has a long history of activity. The south face of the mountain is carved up with numerous old mining trails dating back to the early 1900’s. These trails are easy to navigate and allow for endless recreational opportunities.
Hiking the roads makes for an easy day, or you can head up to the alpine and continue on to the peak. ATV-ing is quite common in the area in the summer and snowmobiling in the winter months.
