Labor Day Weekend Adventures

Three days of adventures. Switzerland Trail out of Boulder, Left Hand Park Reservoir, Peak-to-Peak Highway, Red Feather Lakes, Dispersed Camping, Deadman Lookout, Sand Creek Pass.

Salt Cabin Park

Just a lowly forest road, meandering its way through the woods in northern Pingree Park. Good dispersed camping and views of White Pine Mountain.

Old Flowers

Sometimes you’re on a backcountry road and wonder, “why does this road even exist?” The industries which built the West are often the reason, and Old Flowers Rd. is no exception.

Cripple Creek & Victor, CO

There’s nothing like having a cold one at a saloon which once served the same to miners over 100 years ago. New ownership, new patrons, but one thing is timeless throughout history: booze.

Emmaline Lake

An excellent hike in Pingree Park takes you to an amazing area high in the Northern Colorado Rockies.

Mt. of the Holy Cross

The Halo Ridge route is challenging but rewarding. It offers the best views a hike on the Mt. of the Holy Cross can offer.

Creedmore Lakes

Just north of Red Feather Lakes, these hike-in lakes offer beautiful opportunities for fishing and camping.

Hohnholz Lakes

Nestled at the north end of the Laramie River Valley, the Hohnholz Lakes area provides world-class opportunities for camping and fishing.

171 Network

The Swamp Creek area offers a plethora of choices for offroading, camping, and shooting. Make no mistake, there are often RVs, generators, shooting, and people riding OHVs. For a drunken weekend in the hills the area is perfect.

Sevenmile Road, Larimer County, CO

This offroad trail is a fun way to get into the 171 network and off the main roads sooner. There are creek crossings and challenging rocks. Not for the everyday sedan.
