    Hiking

    At this location, the Poudre River Trail crosses the Poudre River over a bridge. The Jones Ditch is one of the earliest ditches that are still operating today and is a typical canal for irrigation structures in the 1860s. Over three miles long, it supplied water for domestic use and irrigation and was named after William R. Jones, a steelmaking inventor and manager.

    Cycling

    The Cache La Poudre River runs 126 miles in length and is Colorado's only nationally designated "Wild & Scenic" river. It starts in Rocky Mountain National Park and ends at the confluence of the South Platte River near Greeley. The river's name in French translates to "cache of powder" and originated from French trappers hiding gunpowder along the river in the 1820s.
