Mt. Sneffels - South Slopes route, with maps and route description

My climb of San Juan 14er Mt. Sneffels on September 8, 2021 along the standard South Slopes route, including maps & route description. The mountain, which has been called "The Queen of the San Juans," is one of Colorado's more prominent and striking fourteeners. This class 3 climb to the summit takes me first to the historic, picturesque, and well-preserved nearby town of Ouray, then along a dramatic drop-off road with overhanging rock, high into Yankee Boy Basin, past high jagged pinnacles and bluffs, and finally up boulder and scree-strewn slopes to be treated with amazing views. In this video, I describe some history of the mountain and of Ouray, and detail each stage of the ascent. For my ascent to the top of nearby San Juan 14er Wetterhorn Peak, go here:    • Wetterhorn Peak - Climb to the summit...  . For other full mountain climbs:    • Mountain Hikes and Climbs  .
