Land OwnerBLM
Horse gulch's best bike summit gives you an excellent view of Horse Gulch. This ~30% grade continuous rock slab has great traction to ride as an out and back. Either push a bike up, or if you want to see if you are one of the fittest in Durango, try and climb it (yes, people do this). Extra bonus points off the summit through additional chunky tech.
Access Info
Go climbers right at the top of telegraph. Trail may be difficult to find at start, but then defined.
