Peru Creek, Colorado is in the White River National Forest and part of the Dillon Ranger District.
I went with my wife and oldest daughter and a friend who was sure he knew the way. He refused to use his phone Maps and we wound up on the other side of the mountain. Which is a very steep ascent.
So the moral of the story: use Google Maps to find the Trailhead!
It’s very scenic there but very rugged and rural. We didn’t pass any other hikers that day. But we did see a marmot.
At times you will pass abandoned mining equipment, mine shafts, and historic buildings.
