This area is named after the Prebles meadow jumping mouse, a small mouse native to Colorado and Wyoming that is considered a threatened species. There is an active effort to conserve the areas where they are found. This trail is more rustic due to these conservation efforts but provides a nice alternative to the paved trail at the park. It offers lovely views of Pikes Peak along the way and includes a little more of an elevation changes.
