Trail Overview
North of Leadville, Mount Zion is a short, but fun ride. You will reach Mount Zion a little over halfway up the trail. Enjoy the views of Leadville and Turquoise Lake, and continue on to the end of the road near Buckeye Peak for even better views. FS 109 is open all year, but FS 189 is closed until June 30.
