Mountain Biking CR 175 / Ute Trail
#352 of 1,348 mountain bike trails in Colorado
#3,921 in the world
CR 175 climbs for 12 miles one-way from 7,000ft Salida to close to 10,000 feet, way up in the Arkansas Hills. Ridden as an out-and-back this would make for a 24 mile ride with a ton of climbing, gorgeous views, and plenty of options to keep riding and/or turn this into a big gravel loop. Some singletrack trails also connect to this road, offering up more interesting routes.
