There are a lot of trails here rangong from dirt road to 4x4 roaad to singletrack. On some of the
trails you get into beautiful meadows with marshs and streams. Farther up is the singletrack.
Grab a map either at the Granby Ranger station or the Grand Lake Visitor Center and just
explore.

    Rode this trail as an out and back last week. Rode Gilsonite to Wolverine and then continued on Wolverine to the trail opened onto the tundra. It was a fabulous ride. Even rode through a new avalanche path that ripped through the trees in the last two years. Trail is fairly clear of trees. Great backcountry trail.

    One of the hardest uphills(wolverine) i've done in colorado and in some parts of the trail it gets pretty. The beggining is a bit rough as they are a lot of downed trees. The directions on here are a little off but still great technical climbs. Again the uphill is tough, but the downhill is unreal, mix between black,blues and greens. The higher elevation, the rockier it gets.

    Reviewing Gilsonite Trail:
    ***

    Entrance is well-hidden behind some trees. Easy to ride right on by.

    Lots of steep climbs and bike hikes. Some short, some very long. Quite a few loose rocks in sections. Quite a few downed trees in the lower section.

    There are a lot of great trails in the area. Most are motorized and get a lot of use on the weekends by four wheelers but during the week, the trails are empty. Spruce-Em-up-Jack trail is sweet (doubletrack), Gilsonite Trail is awesome (singletrack), Bull Mountain (doubletrack) and Trail Creek (doubletrack) are also good.
