From the parking area, we started around the trail on the south side where the trailhead sign and bathrooms are, so this is the direction reflected in the elevation information above. The best viewpoint is only about a tenth a mile from this spot.

However, there are plenty of other nice view too as you continue around the loop.
Directions
This hike is located near Frisco, Colorado. To get there from I-70, take Exit 203 for Summit Blvd. and head south on this road. Continue along this road for about 3.7 miles until you reach Swan Mountain Road. Turn left and continue for just under 2 miles to the trailhead. It is an obvious turn out from the main road on the left. GPS Coordinates: N39 35.316 W106 02.660
