MHJC Club Calendar - Event View

Join P-4 as we run the Eagle Rock trail west of Colorado Springs. Once you start the climb on Gold Camp Road it becomes very scenic with some great views of Colorado Springs. The trail is rated a 6 with some bypasses. We will meet up at the Natural Grocers S Nevada Ave @ 9:15 and depart for the trail head at 9:30. Its about a 15 minute drive to the trail head from the meetup spot.

This is a great off-road trail that's close to Colorado Springs and provides a good challenge to vehicles that are a little more than stock but still offers some fun routes for more built rigs. There's also many trails in this area that you can explore that vary in level of difficulty. The drive up to the trail gives you great views of Colorado Springs. The first part of the trail consists of a large hill with rocks you must navigate through. There is a bypass for the first section, but the second area has similar rocks and some switchbacks. Most of the other obstacles have bypasses. There are a few creek crossings and areas that require you to squeeze through skinny spots in the trees. It's is an easy trip from the Springs but is also a nice getaway for camping.

Be sure to bring lunch plenty of water, sunscreen and the GRMS radio.
