Rosalie Peak doesn\u2019t see a lot of visitors, which is somewhat surprising considering its proximity to Denver (about an hour\u2019s drive). As 13ers go, its a straightforward class 2 mountain. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.summitpost.org\/rosalie-peak\/152512\">Summitpost.org<\/a> has this to say about the peak:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><i>Rosalie Peak, the 207th highest peak in Colorado, is the southernmost thirteener in the Mount Evans Wilderness. When viewed from Denver, it&#8217;s the rounded summit on the left end of the Evans Massif. It is named for Rosalie Bierstadt, wife of the famous painter of Western landscapes, Alfred Bierstadt. Originally, Mount Evans was named Mount Rosalie, but when the Colorado legislature renamed that summit for the second territorial governor of Colorado, John Evans, they gave Rosalie Peak its current name.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s interesting that when hiked from the Mount Evans road, you will actually start out downhill (similar to the south ridge of Mount Bierstadt). So if you\u2019re looking for a relatively easy peak bagging route, that would be it. We opted for the Deer Creek Trailhead route from the south near Bailey, which has a surprising 4,370 ft. of elevation gain.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2465\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2465\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2465 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3067-Custom.jpg\" alt=\"Deer Creek Trailhead Denver\" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3067-Custom.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3067-Custom-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3067-Custom-600x403.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/469;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2465\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The start of the trail.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_2466\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2466\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2466 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3073-Custom.jpg\" alt=\"Tanglewood Creek colorado\" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3073-Custom.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3073-Custom-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3073-Custom-600x403.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/469;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2466\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A good shot of the lower trail by Tanglewood Creek.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>It\u2019s worth noting that the old trail to Rosalie via Deer Creek must have been improved in the past few years. Older write-ups cite the trail at 9.0 miles round trip and the National Geographic Trails map I use shows a straight trail up the saddle between Rosalie and Pegmatite Points. As of 2014, the trail has added in switchbacks and swings out a bit farther east, making the total mileage 10.5 miles.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the beefy altitude gain and 10+ miles, it\u2019s not a particularly grueling day. The trail to the saddle is well maintained (mostly for backpacking) and when you split to head towards the summit, you will undertake a \u201cpleasant grind\u201d along a modestly angled but deceptively long hill (1,600 ft. of vert gain).<\/p>\n<p>From the Deer Creek Trailhead (see directions below), follow the Tanglewood Creek Trail 4.0 miles to the Saddle Between Rosalie and the Pegmatite Point. This is an easy-to-follow and shady trail that parallels the humble flow of Tanglewood Creek most of the way. From the saddle, it\u2019s 1.5 miles to the top.<\/p>\n<p>When you first start, there is a split with sign; stay right towards the Rosalie Trail and Tanglewood Creek. About a mile in, there\u2019s another split with the Rosalie Trail going left and the Tanglewood Trail going right. Oddly, stay on the Tanglewood trail (the Rosalie Trail circumnavigates the bottom of Rosalie Peak and offers a LONG way to the summit via the west slope &#8212; skip it!)<\/p>\n<p>As the trail begins to climb in earnest, you\u2019ll pass through a duff strewn forest, high willows and finally breach treeline in a series of switchbacks. The flowers were A+ when we hiked in July. When you reach the saddle, the trail will continue on to the Roosevelt Lakes below. This is the spot to hop off the trail and go west young man (or woman, or dog).<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2467\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2467\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2467 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3081-Custom.jpg\" alt=\"Rosalie Peak Tanglewood route\" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3081-Custom.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3081-Custom-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3081-Custom-600x403.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/469;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2467\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Breaching treeline!<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_2468\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2468\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2468 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3085-Custom.jpg\" alt=\"Bandit Peak colorado\" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3085-Custom.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3085-Custom-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3085-Custom-600x403.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/469;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2468\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A look back through the willows with unranked &#8220;Bandit Peak&#8221; in the background.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_2469\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2469\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2469 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3087-Custom.jpg\" alt=\"Ghost trees along the way. \" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3087-Custom.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3087-Custom-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3087-Custom-600x403.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/469;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2469\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ghost trees along the way.<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_2470\" style=\"width: 710px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2470\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2470 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3096-Custom.jpg\" alt=\"Nearing the saddle between Rosalie Peak and Pegmatite Points. \" width=\"700\" height=\"469\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3096-Custom.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3096-Custom-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mountainouswords.com\/mountain-air\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/DSCN3096-Custom-600x403.jpg 600w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 700px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 700\/469;\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2470\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nearing the saddle between Rosalie Peak and Pegmatite Points.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>There are no established trails from this point &#8212; not even a faint hiker\u2019s trail, which is sort of odd &#8212; so try to stay on rock as much as you can.

Follow 43 until a fork in the road about 7 miles in. Take the left fork (CR 43) not the right (CR47). The road becomes dirt and will bypass the Deer Creek Campground, which is a lefthand fork &#8212; stay right (there is a microscopic sign for Deer Creek Trailhead at the fork). In about 5 more minutes, you\u2019ll reach the large parking lot, which has a sign for no overnight camping. The entire road (dirt and pavement) is passable by passenger cars.
