Nice easy, close to Boulder.

The trail head starts at 8th Avenue and 3rd Street, with a parking lot along the tree line. The beginning of the trail is up a rocky 4-wheel drive trail, but then turns into meadows. At the top of the dirt road, you have the choice of turning left or right. Turning right will lead you into the meadows where there are a few different trails. Just follow the signs. If you choose to turn left, the trail gets difficult and goes up the ridge face for some good climbs and descents.

From Ft. Collins to Loveland, co, from Soderburg Trailhead near Horsetooth Mtn Park and Lory State Park, to Loveland. Increasingly difficult if you take the Coyote Ridge trail or farther, the Devile Backbone trail (in Loveland). Isolated and beautiful. Soderburg has trail fees, Devils backbone has none.

fairly easy, flat, few obstacles
