East-West Trail Highlands Ranch

Dec 29th-
Revisited this ride and very glad I did. All dirt trails, great views from higher vistas. Though it seems a lot of up and down climbing, only a couple of climbs warrant a breather stop. This would be great for the fat-bike when snowy or wet.

Denver in the distance.

Mountains, Foothills, Suburbia and treeless plains. This is the Colorado Front Range.

A couple of rough segments. A reminder to me about the varied terrain on this trail.
Private property to the right around the bluffs. Should be open with a trail.

The deep valley here contrasted well against the horizon and mountains.
