Recent Trail Reports Along Route

trail	date	description
Sawmill-Nebo Creek Trail	Jun 17, 2026 @ 3:59pm (America/Denver) Jun 17, 2026	Lots of trees down across trail on the top half (from the fire a few years back), and beavers have taken over the bottom half - the beaver dams are really cool, but have flooded the trail... Needs a couple of winter storms to knock down the rest of the burned/dead trees and then a lot of trail work!
Bennie Creek Trail	May 16, 2026 @ 12:23pm (America/Denver) May 16, 2026	Great dirt right now. No trees down.
Loafer Mountain Trail	Nov 11, 2025 @ 2:20pm (America/Denver) Nov 11, 2025
Beaver Dam	Jul 20, 2025 @ 7:17pm Jul 20, 2025	Large tree down across trail, blocking trail. Ok, I'm going to go a bit farther than the last few reports and just call this closed from the Beaver Damn intersection. I mean, you could take a hike, I suppose, but it's not worth taking a bike right now, especially with so much other fun stuff to ride nearby. It needs a lot of work and restoration, which hopefully they'll get to once the campground is open again?
Blackhawk Trail	Jul 20, 2025 @ 7:13pm Jul 20, 2025	Overgrown vegetation. From the Blackhawk Campground Parking area (which is technically closed, I learned after riding the singletrack section) to the cattle gate, things are fine. But don't go past that unless you want to HAB back up. As per a previous report, the rest of the Blackhawk trail and Beaver Dam are unrideable. Downed trees, no trail, or purposely blocked trail. There is a sign as closed road to the campground that no one is supposed to be back there, but none of the feeder trails into the area are marked as closed. Rider beware!
