FS Road 379A

Dogs Unknown

E-Bikes Allowed

This dirt road is more trail-like than road-like and above 11,000 feet, the altitude will affect endurance quickly.

The trail begins off of FS 379, at about mile 4.7 off the north side of the road. The climb is steady over the first mile and a half. Not terrible really.

After 1.5 miles, the trail becomes loose and more rocks lay in the road. The grade also increases, making for a challenging climb approaching the Almagre basin at about 12,000 ft.

The road continues to the south peak. It is much more approachable than the north peak, but still has significant grade as it rises to the 12,349 ft at the south peak.

Views into Cripple Creek and the southern Rampart Range are astonishing.
