Mountain Biking Skipper
#610 of 1,392 mountain bike trails in Colorado
The Skipper trail is a 1.4 mile narrow rolling singletrack that connects Buck Gulch to Strawberry_Jack/Homestead in the Buffalo Creek network. The trail goes thru the Hi Meadow burn area so you'll get a good look at the fire damage and the recovering vegetation. The trail builders left zero log crossing in the trail. Because all the trees burned, there is get very little shade on the ride. There is one creek crossing that offers a change of pace from rolling thru the downed trees. The creek banks provide the the only real technical obstacles on the trail.

Connects Buck Gulch to Strawberry_Jack/Homestead. You can get directly on the trail at the Buck Gulch trailhead from FR549.
This is just a connector, and not even from any of the better starting points in the Buff Creek system. Did it once and doubt I'll go that way again.
| ThankAs for me, this trail is connector to get to other trails. Scenery is great though.
