콜로라도 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

The starting point for the 18 road trails. From here, fun uphill trails lead to the starting points of the descents, which also end here. The area is the perfect introduction to the trails around Fruita: varying – mostly moderate – difficulty levels, and after each descent, you decide whether to pedal back up for another lap.

A rugged mountain run that follows a tumbling creek through a narrow canyon, with steep walls rising on both sides. The sound of rushing water and glimpses of small cascades keep the climb lively, while the cool air from the creek offers relief on warm days. A tough but scenic stretch on the way to higher ground or to Ouray.

Wrangler’s Run is a run! This trail blasts 😎

The junction also appears to be the highest Point of the Rawhide Trail

The Perimeter Trail is one of the main trail in Ouray and gives you great views of the town and mountains. There is also one of several via ferrata accesses here.

There is a large crushed gravel / dirt parking lot with restrooms and a trail sign. The trails from here are fun and quite popular, and parking fills up quickly in the summer. White Ranch Park may sometimes be closed for muddy conditions. You can read more here: https://www.jeffco.us/1437/White-Ranch-Park.

The Rawhide trail remains a wide packed dirt path all the way from the trailhead to a little ways after the Sourdough Springs Campground. Wrangler's Run, on the other hand, is a much narrower singletrack which runs east along the creek to where it meets the Rawhide trail again (there both are singletrack).

Just off Rawhide Trail in an open meadow lies an abandoned barn. In 1865, James and Mary Bond were headed to California. They settled on this land after their young son was killed under the wheels of their wagon. Their home still stands within the park. In 1913, Paul and Anna Lee White bought a portion of the land and began acquiring additional properties for a cattle ranch that they operated on it until 1969 when Paul died. In 1974 Anna entered into a purchase and gift agreement to transfer ownership to Jefferson County Open Space. In 2002, the adjacent Weidner property, consisting of 266 fee acres and 619 acres under a conservation easement, were added to White Ranch. This created a connection from White Ranch to the Golden Gate State Park.
