Description
There are a number of trails in this system that make great loops on mostly singletrack and a little doubletrack. A fun 8 mile route (as shown on the map) would be - start on Meadow Trail, take a right on Cross Trails, left on Whoops Trail, right on Southfork (fun fast downhill) and then follow Southfork across the creek (great place to cool down) to Burnout Loop. Follow the Burnout Loop (fun either direction) and then continue on Southfork, crossing the wooden boardwalks. Follow Southfork to the Ditch Trail (actually ride in an old irrigation ditch) and back to Cross Trails to Whoops Trail (turn right this time) and take it to Serendipity Trail and back to Meadow Trail. There are many more trails in the area, pick up a map at a local bike shop It is a great area with singletrack, boardwalks, creek crossings and views of the mountains!

Review: Trail pretty much as detailed above. Ditch trail is very flat. Crosstrails goes up an old ski hill, so a little more vertical. Trails are well-signed, so hard to get lost. A resident said that it is not a good idea to park up on Friendship Rd; residents don't want anybody parking up there. Better to park behind Hernando's Pizza place; N39 55'38.69 W 105 47'06.59. Trail starts at N39 55'37.81 W 105 47'04.29 This then requires you to climb about a 1/2 mile and 200 vertical feet. Fun trail, though.
