Discover Pass required, I do believe.
Bring your micro spikes if your have them. We may run into snow. I love this hike.
WTA :
"Bndera Mountain is a chameleon. Most would describe it as an easy hike--relatively short and not very steep for most of its length–-but then it suddenly changes, turning informal and rough, particularly in its last half mile, making it feel like the rugged backcountry trek it at times can be."
