Trail Overview
The first half of this route follows CR 250 through BLM Land with great views of the Arkansas River Valley to the south. The road forks midway through as it enters Forest Service Land; stay left onto CR 252 heading up to the Mt Shavano/Tabeguache Trailhead. The trail is bumpy and rocky throughout, with whoops in the second half, and has plenty of space for vehicles to pass. Multiple dispersed campsites can be found along the route and access to the Colorado Trail.
