Lower Calico is a phenomenal ride with a ton of vert and variety to the terrain. One of the more fun trails in the Dolores Rico area. What is great as well is that due to its direction and facing the sun, it can be ridden much earlier in the year and can fulfill the desire for a bigger ride earlier in the spring. The trail can either be ridden as an out an back(although mostly hike a bike) or it can be connected in via Taylor creek road with a tad bit of meandering to get into the trail or into it via another trail such as Upper Calico. Challenging trail to loop unless adding in road riding at the start or end.

Lower Calico is a blast of a trail. There are some more challenging rock sections sprinkled in throughout. Wide open meadow sections with ripping turns, a few steeper sections, great views, and everything in between. It truly rides as a well rounded trail that checks off most boxes. Bonus: great fall time trail with the aspens.
