Frisco - SilverthornThere is a nice paved trail along one shore of the Dillon Reservoir. It's nice for families or beginners or a quick, pleasant ride for anyone out of Frisco or Silverthorn | |
A very nice view from the paved trail. | |
Deer Creek RoadThis trail is a long climb above treeline. It goes well above 12,000 feet. | |
The views are spectacular. | |
It's a good idea to ride this road early in the morning to avoid the intense sun and possible thunderstorms. | |
There is some 4 wheel drive traffic on this road, which is another reason to ride in the morning and on weekdays. | |
Frequent stops "to look at the view" will give you a chance to catch your breath. | |
By the time you get here you feel like you are really among the peaks. | |
The ride back down is a great treat. It convinces you that the money you paid for front shocks was worth it. | |
