“You’re off to great places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting, so…get on your way!” – Dr.Seuss.
TRAVEL LOG: Clinton Gulch Reservoir, near Copper Mountain in White River National Forest, Colorado, July 2011
FIELD NOTES: Clinton Gulch Trailhead is located about 7 miles off I-70 on State Hwy 91 near Copper Mountain/Leadville, CO. It’s an easy trail, although my kids weren’t much into going all the way around the lake…so we went maybe a 1/4 of the way around. {sigh.} This trail combines spectacular wildflowers with a mountain view. You may want to check out nearby Mayflower Gulch (6.1 miles off I-70 on Hwy 91). None of the trailheads are marked from the highway, you have to pull in to find out which trailhead you are at.
