East Slopes – 1.0 miles RT, 973 feet net & total, Class 2-

This is the easiest route on Cinnamon Mountain. Start at the Paradise Divide Trailhead next to the beginning of the Yule Pass Trail. Don’t follow the Yule Pass Trail, but climb north on a use trail for 200 yards. Leave the use trail, and dodging bushes as needed, climb west-northwest up steepening grass and scree slopes to the summit.
