Ptarmigan Trail
Here is an excellent lollipop loop in the hills above Silverthorne in a small triangle of the Williams Fork Mountains and Arapaho National Forest. The route is a mellow stroll on a gentle grade and soft tread through aspen and pine forest, with great views of the Gore Range, Dillon Reservoir, and the high mountains far to the south.
