Cross Country Rider Summary:
Update on Hewlett Gulch. The Forest Service has redone the bridge, paved the road and put in a parking area and toilets at the trailhead. I rode it with my daughter on Sept. 29 and were the only riders on the trail. Met three hikers with their dogs and that's it. As described, fun, technical stream crossings and some lung searing climbs.

Downhiller Summary:
Pretty decent trail with some nice scenery. A lot of open space so it gets annoying on hot sunny days. Coming down the meadow on top is a blast and the rocks on the loop are fun too. Other than that nothing incredibly interesting, but fun nonetheless. Recommended Route:
For tech stuff do the loop, if not run it out and back. Make sure you go a ways up the meadow - coming down that is the funnest part of the trail. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Maxwell, Youngs (1/2 mile down the rd.), Michaud

, from Ft. Collims, CO Summary:
I think this fast creek bottom down hill is hard to beat. Lots of banking turns, technical creek crossings, huge airs, and really fun steep sections. I rode it early spring this year and the snow melt had the creek so high that the crossing were really scetch. Really fun winter ride, with good challenging up hills, and an awesome downhill ride. Recommended Route:
I recommend the loop for more experience riders, and up'n back along the creek for less experienced riders. Other recommended trails in the same area:
Youngs

Great trail with a fairly easy climb with a few technical sections. Crossover many small streams. Eventually make it to a meadow which is a scream coming down. You can get a great amount of speed coming down the meadow. Overall an awesome trail with alot of variety. Recommended Route:
out and back Other recommended trails in the same area:
Young's Gulch

, from Ft. Collins Summary:
This is the best trail I have ever been on! The numerous stream crossings give it character. I have only done the up and back and it is pretty easy but I have heard the loop is pretty tough. The only bad thing about this trail is there was a fire recently and it has charred almost all of the trees so the forest is not in its most attractive state. Other recommended trails in the same area:
If you like to climb(you are a rare person) try Youngs Gulch.
