Description

Coming off of Magnolia Drive, this road winds its way up to an intersection with Yellow Dot Trail and Blue Dot Trail. Along the way the road pops in and out of dense coniferous forest, but has great views of the Indian Peaks and the Continental Divide throughout. Make your way through the rock-chunder and occasional water-carved gully to its terminus where it breaks out of the forest and into an open meadow.
