New York Mountain TH #1876 the Forest Service's write-up
The New York Mountain trail begins at Baryeta Cabins Road #423 and ends at Nolan Lake Trail #1898. To start at the Baryeta Cabins Road, you must either have a rugged, high-clearance 4WD or hike up the road first. Another option is to start the trail further up at the trailhead for New York Lake Trail #2221. The trail can be faint and hard to follow in spots but provides excellent views of the Sawatch Range.

The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
