Grand Canyon day? This stop along the way at 8000ft above sea level sports a beautiful walking trail with HUGE views! Wildlife abounding... though it was squirrel and chipmonk day for us, lol. Great place to just stop and stare into the past!

This was my favorite place to hike and bike while living in the area! It’s never crowded, you always see cool wildlife, you have beautiful views of mountains, trees, rocks, and plants! It’s just so peaceful and the trails here go on for miles!

Vault toilets are what many people stop here for. The hiking trail is easy but not spectacular. I stop to break up a long drive and let my dog out.

An amazing little walkway just off the road with beautiful views of the mountains and abundant wildlife, especially in the mornings!
