“A connector to Betasso from town in the summer, or a fun snow run in the winter!”
— Tom Robson
Features
Birding · Fall Colors · River/Creek · Swimming · Views · Wildlife
Description
The path eventually dead-ends at the edge of Boulder Canyon Rd. and you can then run a short section of road to get to the Betasso Link Trail. In the summer, this provides a nice way to ride Betasso from town.
In the winter, the paved part of the path is maintained by the city and cleared of snow, but the dirt section is generally snow-covered. It's heavily trafficked by other trail users, so it's usually hard-packed snow that's run-able most times of year. A fun way to get out when all the other trails are snowy and off-limits!
