| This trailhead : Turn left and follow 36 to 66 into Lyons. Drive through Lyons and turn left on Hwy 7. Head southwest on Hwy 7 for about 1.5 miles. Drive to the second parking. These trails are relatively open so I wouldnt go in summer. It was a bit hot in June. |
 |
| I enjoyed this hike as it had a variety of terrains and scenery of rock and such. There is also a decnt elevation of 1450 by the end. Mileage was about 6 miles but you could go longer or shorter choosing different trails. |
 |
| The oldest rock in the area is about 1.7 billion years old and the youngest is approximately 62 million years old. The rocks are a mix of sandstone and granite. |
 |
| There are supposed to be lots of wildflowers but we were too early I guess. |
