Trail Overview

This single track starts on a wide track through extensive grassy meadows and curves through the lodgepole pine tree forest on a smooth, easy trail. It cuts across the mountainsides and climbs up the mountain with a few big, wide corners. The trail has more rocks and roots than the other trails in the area, but the majority is still smooth. It goes underneath some powerlines. One steeper spot with a few embedded boulders makes this trail slightly more complicated than many other trails in the area, with a small rock ledge less than a foot tall. It goes over some bridges across a meadow, then passes the intersection for the Powerhair Trail, and ends on Frey Gulch Road. This trail is open 7/1 - 10/9 for motorized use.

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.
