Millset is a hard hike in Colorado's San Carlos Ranger District, part of the Pike and San Isabel National Forests. The trail is an out-and-back that rises from a low point of about 8,000 feet to a high of nearly 11,000 feet, with an elevation gain of about 4,700 feet over roughly 9 miles. The Forest Service manages the surrounding land, and the route is open year-round. The trail is natural-surfaced and carries both horses and bikes. The parking area is named Millset, and it sits about 0.6 miles from YMCA Camp Jackson, which makes the camp a natural base for the climb. Several other destinations lie within a few miles. Greenhorn is about 1.8 miles away, and Lake Isabel Cabin is about 3.9 miles off. Snowslide Trail and Turkey Creek are both within about 4 miles.
