    Tips

    October 21, 2023

    The Agate Creek Trail is a lesser used trail that gains access to the CDT, Colorado Trail, and Monarch Crest Trail. It's a long climb from the parking area off of Highway 50 to the major trail intersection roughly 9 miles with 2,300 feet of vertical gain away. There are also a bunch of water crossings making this primitive trail feel even more wild.
