Mt Holy Cross is an iconic 14,009 ft peak, often depicted in photographs and paintings with the snow field in the shape of a cross, hence its name.
The most standard route is the North Ridge. The out & back has a Strava segment.
This is a spectacular tour of the NE portion of the San Juans! Starting at Fellin Park, Ouray CO, connect trails to tag the 14ers Wetterhorn, Uncompahgre, Redcloud, Sunshine, and Handies. Return to close out the loop at the Bear Creek Trail trailhead above Ouray and then into town where you started. First established clock-wise, but counter-clockwise would be excellent as well! All routes up 14'ers are standard.
