Lowder Trail #3329


Beginning at Lowder Mountain, Upper Trailhead, Lowder Trail #3329 starts by entering the Three Sisters Wilderness and switching back up the southern base of a mountain above Quaking Aspen Swamp. The trail travels through an old growth conifer forest, looping to the west side of the mountain and breaking out into a meadow hillside where it meets Walker Creek Trail #3330. Trail tread is maintained to this point, then becomes unmaintained past the junction due to the tread being overgrown from lack of use.
