Description: Follow a path heading towards the woods and dam of Sunset lake. Follow this trail through some suburbs untill you reach the Foerst Station. Then bear right onto West Bench Trail. The trail continues to Powder Horn downhill trails and also to lands end. But, I stoped at a spot where a stream is the trail for 1/4 or so miles.

This is a very fun trail for late summer riding, as it tends to be wet til July. I like to ride it all the way to Palisade point, where a great view of the Grand Valley can be enjoyed. After you pass Powderhorn lift 2, the trail will join a rough doubletrack for a few miles, then pop out on a gravel road. I take this to the west edge of the Grand Mesa before returning to Powderhorn.

Starts walking across a beaver dam. Bring plenty if insect repellant, mosquitoes, don't stop. Deep in the trees ride.

There were some great rock gardens on this trail and in additiion some great fast hard packed single track. It is hard to find, I found it by accident, but if you do you wont be disapointed.
