This is an out-and-back trail. It is in close proximity to I-70 and traffic noise can be heard. The Straight Creek Trail also begins at this trailhead. It is open to all non-motorized uses, but also is open to motorcycles and ATVs. See the Straight Creek ROG for more information about that trail. Starting in 2012, mountain bikes may only be used on trails marked with a mountain bike symbol. If there is no sign, it is closed to that use. Dog owners - Please be considerate of other trail users. Keep your dog in sight and when you encounter others, call the dog to your side until they pass. Use a stick to remove dog feces from the trail.
