About Snowdrift Peak

Snowdrift Peak is the beautifully snow-bound peak straddling the west side of the Continental Divide to the northwest of Flattop Mountain in Rocky Mountain National Park. It is most easily accessed via the Flattop Mountain Trail, but it is still a very remote peak. This is certainly one of the most popular trails in the park, and it will be very crowded. Reach the summit of Flattop Mountain.
