I spent a lot of time as a kid in the Rifle River Recreation Area, so it’s always make it a point to get out there a few times when I am home. There is actually a pretty underrated network of trails in the park that offer about as nice of hiking as one could expect in the area. We did a little loop that was just under six miles, it did include a little road walking to connect, but it was a weekday and there were not many people out. We got rained on pretty good for awhile and surprisingly the bugs were not bad. Highlights of the hike for me were the nice green forest and the two bridge crossings of the Rifle River.
