This is an easy road when dry, but when it's wet, it can get muddy. starting from the east end of the trail, the road travels up a valley of meadows.

Status Reports

Some snow on the road, been a while since snowfall so it was very manageable in 4wd. Could become more difficult with just a couple inches of snow.

Some folks on the trail until you cross county road 31 and then it was empty all the way to the end in South Park

Snow is pretty much non existent at this point. We’ll see how much precipitation the area gets this coming weekend but when I was there everything was already good to ride in this area 👍🏼

Access Description

Starting from the east side from County Road 77, you will start on Marksbury Road/County Road 46. At the intersection of Marksbury Road and County Road 31, jog to your left on 31 about 100 feet to continue on CR46, which is Puma Road. Continue over La Salle Pass to the end where it turns into Clear Creek Road, then turn left on Turner Gulch Road to Highway 24. There are staging areas at both ends.
