Trail Overview

This new single-track trail in the Tenderfoot Mountain motorized trail system loops off Powerline and Frey Gulch Road. It's similar to many of the fast and flowy trails through this trail system, as it winds through the pine trees. It side-hills al ng the edge of the mountainside on a narrow dirt trail, crosses a couple of wooden bridges over ravines, and has a few steeper spots with a bit of loose rock. Otherwise, the entire route will be very smooth and easy. It has big banked corners and sweeping switchbacks as it descends the mountainside on the west half. Some switchbacks are a bit more rutted but still accessible. There are many tight turns through the trees, but it's mostly fast and flowy. It goes through a clearing where the trees are short. The bottom half zags through the vast open hillside in the clearing next to 4-foot tall pine trees, through sweeping hairpin gradual and comprehensive turns, with a view of Keystone Ski Resort. Overall, it's a fn loop to add to your ride when on the east part of this trail system.

Access Description

The Tenderfoot Mountain Trail System is full of easy singletracks that are all very similar, fast and flowy. The main motorized trailhead is on County Landfill Road off of Highway 6. As the road turns into Frey Gulch Road there is a dirt parking lot. There's also a small parking lot near the north end of the Tenderfoot Mountain Trail off of County Road 51, but it's more of a parking lot for the hiking trails, so it will likely be busy and isn't good for trailers. The area is very well marked and maintained, with new trails still being constructed. It's a multi-use popular area, so you will see lots of hikers and mountain bikers. This area was built from your Colorado OHV dollars.
