Trail Overview

Welcome to quintessential Colorado mid-country riding. This trail can be an out and back or you can use a series of roads to make a nice loop through some really beautiful country. This singletrack weaves in and out of drainages and through pinyon pines, oak, and all the way up to conifers and aspens. The local clubs do an amazing job of cutting the trails but don't be surprised to see a log or two across the trail. There are a few challenging spots, but overall it's a reasonable and flowy trail. Best ridden in summer and fall; it is subject to seasonal closures for wildlife habitat from 10/10-6/20.
