Trail Overview

Rock Island Road (GH-87) is a narrow, rocky trail that is frequented by Off-Highway Vehicles such as dirt bikes and SxS in Breckenridge, Colorado. The trail has several rollers that are exciting to drive over on dirt bikes and short-wheel-base vehicles. This may not be suitable for longer wheel-base vehicles. The trail is surrounded by tall pine trees and is home to several birds that you can hear sing. Rock Island Road has seasonal closures and is only open from May 21 to November 22. There are no visible campsites and no available toilets on the trail.

The trail was pretty heavy and wet after the rain. I used Lexus gx460 with highway terrain. I would recommend something with a shorter base or higher clearance.

Very narrow, dangerous sharp rocks to puncture tires, deep snow still on the trail can cause slides.

I went up American Fork and down this Rock Island Trail. I was on 890 Adventure. Most of the trail is easy but towards the bottom the decent is steep and rocky and challenging on a big adv bike.

Long steep uphill road that 2 stroke 125 lacked low end power for. This trail is not for beginners and is a challenge for my 14 year on a dirt bike. We stopped half way and went back down and found the nearby loop much more fun.
