McKee Draw Trail

The Burn Canyon Trail System consists of about 14 miles of single-track trail for hikers, equestrians, and mountain bikers. The area is located just west of Norwood and can be accessed by a smooth gravel road (AA42 Road/Norwood Burn Road) that should be passible in any vehicle. There are a couple of possible starting points: a small lower trailhead at the bottom of McKee Draw (access to McKee Draw and Flat Iron Loop), the large main upper trailhead a mile past (access to all trails), and roadside access 1.5 mile further (access to Cedar Post and Hideout Canyon Loops, high clearance 4x4 recommended). The McKee Draw Trail (accessed via the lower trailhead) is closed to bikers, but open to hikers and equestrians. The trail follows the bottom of McKee draw up the drainage. It is a bit rocky and slow hiking at times. Of course you won't have any big vista points hiking through the bottom of the draw, but the views up the canyon walls are nice. There are also some cool large boulders that you'll walk beside. The McKee Draw Trails merges with the Flat Iron Loop which you can continue on up the draw. You can also take the Redtail Trail up to the main (upper) trailhead area. Or, of course, you can return the way you came back down McKee Draw.
