Description
The Eagle Mountain addition consists of a steep, wooded hillside encompassing the lower elevation slopes of one of the high ridges of the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness. Stands of aspen and spruce-fir forest are intermingled with mountain shrubs. Outstanding panoramic views of the high peaks within the wilderness and the Snowmass Creek valley are visible from the slopes of the area. The addition will better define the existing wilderness boundary by generally following topographic contours.
