Doug tring to find his way as #175 splits into many side roads.

James Peak Lake and Little Echo Lake from Kingston Peak
|
Lake Caroline, if you look close you can see some
Jeeps parked near the edge of the water. |
There are enough trails here to ride all day long.
We road 47 miles. |
This trail has many wooded section along with plenty of
riding above the tree line. |
Trails: We parked just past #273 then road up the trail. Go a short way up the trail and turn to the right and start
up the steep trail. Turn right at #175 and follow the signs to St Mary's Glacier. From St Mary's take #7020 to Kingston Peak, this trail will then lead you back to #175. |
Directions: From Denver take I-70 west to exit 238 toward Alice/St Mary's. You can
park anywhere there is a spot but we went to Hamilin Gulch Rd (FR273). There was a place to park just beyond the road on the main road. |
