Description

This hand-built, intermediate level, contour trail includes great views of the Sangre De Cristo and Sawatch Ranges and the town of Salida.

It has moderate elevation gain/loss with a few short steep technical rocky sections. This trail doesn't have a preferred direction, but it does pedal a little easier from north to south.

This trail basically parallels the upper part of Sweet Dreams to the intersection with Chicken Dinner Trail, and as such it offers new ride options in that area, like:
- ride the upper part of Sweet Dreams (from Backbone), and then Dream On, as a loop (clockwise will be slightly easier),
- ride up Chicken Dinner Trail and then continue on Dream On (easier than going up Sweet Dreams) to get to Backbone etc.

Dream On was built by the Colorado Mountain Club, for Salida Mountain Trails.

Cool easy flow trail. Bit challenging to maintain speed.
