The Colorado Trail: FS-560 to Long Gulch

This start of this segment has essentially two trailheads; one at FS-560, and another 0.25 mile up a small dirt road. This segment begins at FS-560, but parking is available at both locations. Segment 4 is highlighted by entry into the Lost Creek Wilderness Area. Bicyclists need to leave the Colorado Trail at FS-560 and begin the long detour to Rock Creek.
