From Denver, take HWY 285 West to Bailey. Turn left (southeast) on FR 543 (Wellington Lake Road) and stay to your right at the few intersections you pass for the next 8 miles. About 1 mile past the intersection with FR 550 you will see a small parking lot on the right side where the Colorado Trail crosses the road. This is the start of the route. You can also start at Kenosha pass by continuing on HWY 285 for 20 miles west of Bailey and parking at the top.

Description: Colorado Trail from FR 550 in Buffalo Creek area to the Lost Creek Wilderness boundary. Note that bikes are strictly prohibited in the wilderness area so don't even think about carrying them to get through. Turn around and enjoy the ride back to FR 550! Beautiful ride.

I've ridden almost all of this, and it is classic Colorado trail!

You can also make a nice out and back (13 mi round trip) from the Kenosha Pass trailhead south to the wilderness boundary and back. A good climb at altitude, a fun downhill, and killer scenery.

I rode about 5 miles (10 miles total) of this trail. In the morning when I woke up, I got on the trail and went for about 5 miles then turned around. That much of the trail was great I would like to ride the rest of this trail some time though.
