Trail Overview

This road branches off of Poncha Loop and provides excellent opportunities to get closer to the southern portion of the Sawatch Range to enjoy dispersed camping in the aspen groves. You can usually take this road further, but it has been restricted due to logging operations in the area. This is still worth checking out if you're in the Poncha Loop area, though.
