South of Silverton lies Kendall Mountain, a 13,000-plus peak casting a shadow over the valley. Kendall Mountain trail winds up the western slope, stopping shy of the jagged, barren peak. Titusville and Kendall Group Mines are found along this narrow shelf road before reaching the radio tower. Once at the tower, park and walk the remainder of the trail, as there is virtually no room to turn a vehicle around at the end. Views of Silverton are quite impressive, especially on a clear day when you can see all of the colorful hills that surround this mountain town. Camping was available in dispersed sites along the first mile or two of the trail. If heights or narrow shelf roads aren't your thing, this may not be the trail for you.
