Trail Overview

This paved road goes through a narrow and scenic canyon with great mountain views ending at Hardware Ranch which is well known for the large elk herd that lives there and is fed all winter. It is also a starting point for hundreds of miles of dirt roads. Could be impassable with snow during winter.
