Description

This is a wide and smooth gravel road that connects the Skyway parking area to the County Line trail system. The Skyway trail system is only available for cross country skiing in the winter. County Line features easier bike trails and is also used for cross country skiing. The road features some gentle elevation changes and passes by one of the Grand Mesa Reservoirs but is otherwise unremarkable.
