Description
Use this paved path to connect from Upper River Road and the bridge adjacent to Smith Hill Way over the Roaring Fork River at Jaffee Park, to climb up to the Intercept Lot. This path allows for a nice connection between the Rio Grande Trail and Brush Creek Bike Path or a bit further on towards Cozyline Trail and the rest of Sky Mountain Park trail system. The path is a little steeper at the north end, but is almost flat for the southern portion.
