The Hope Gulch Trail is a lightly used, 5-mile side trip off the Mineral Basin Trail. The road climbs out of the South Cottonwood Valley and ends on a ridge high above treeline with magnificent views of Mount Antero (14,275') to the south and Mount Yale (14,199') to the north. You can also look down into the Chalk Creek Valley and the South Cottonwood Valley from this ridgeline.
