Thru-Hikers

Take a load off your feet and seize a relaxing respite at Monarch Mountain at the Crest! Enjoy a burger and a beer or ice cream, hang out on the couch for a bit, or reorganize your pack in our Hikers’ Room. We accept thru-hiker resupply boxes – just follow the instructions below. Supply items are also available for purchase.

RESUPPLY BOXES

We accept thru-hiker resupply boxes between May 4, 2026 and October 1, 2026.

Please note, the Crest will open on May 22. If you wish to pick up a resupply box prior to May 22, please call 719-539-4091 to inquire about making arrangements for pick-up.

The Crest will be closing October 12. If for any reason you do not make it to pick up your box prior to this date, contact us for return shipping policies. Boxes that have not been picked up by October 19 will be purged.

Please read carefully and follow these shipping instructions:

Packages MUST be shipped via UPS (United Parcel Service) or FedEx (Federal Express) only. DO NOT use USPS (United States Postal Service) to ship boxes!

USPS does not deliver to our location. We will charge you $25 for a USPS shipment and it will take longer to arrive.

Boxes cannot contain propane, butane nor liquid fuel.

Include your return mailing address on the outside of the box. Address the package in the following manner:

Monarch at the Crest – Resupply
Attn: (First and Last Name of the hiker)(Phone Number) (ETA of hiker)
24500 US Hwy 50
Salida, CO 81201

There is a $10 fee to receive and hold resupply boxes sent using UPS or FedEx, due at time of pickup; USPS shipments will incur a $25 fee at time of pickup. We cannot “bounce” or forward a package along the trail for you.

Expect your package to take a minimum of 7 business days to arrive. If for any reason you do not make it to pick up your box, contact us for return shipping policies. Resupply boxes that have not been picked up by November 1 will be purged.

Consider resupplying in-store! Thru-Hikers get a 10% discount on food, beverages (not including alcohol) and retail items. Save on shipping costs and support our local business!
