FS Road 426 is another gem among the 4-wheel drive roads south of Fairplay, Colorado. This seemingly remote section of the Pike National Forest doesn't get the accolades that more popular roads (Mosquito Pass, Weston Pass, Wheeler Lake, etc.) garner. But for panoramic views, quiet forests, and serene meadows, the Sheep Ridge and Sheep Creek area is hard to beat.
