Front Range Trails

Dana showed me this area for the first time on Friday after work. Then on Sunday I decided to ride it again, this time with Natalie, Erik, and their friend Adam. Located high above Boulder Canyon on Magnolia Road, the "Star Wars" trails, as Dana calls them, are a network of singletrack paths through alpine meadows and pine, fir, and aspen forests.

        A gorgeous aspen meadow.

        Views of the Continental Divide are never too shabby.

        Erik riding through the "Car Wash", so named because the pine boughs
        give you a good scrubbing as you ride this narrow section of trail.

        Adam rides some very cool singletrack through the forest.
