Dakota Hill North

Dakota Hill North is a delightful connection from the extensive network of trails around Dakota Hill and Oregon Hill to Moon Gulch which runs between Rollinsville and Apex. The steep, loose hills provide a little more challenge than many of the other trails in the area and the open hillside allows spectacular views of the James Peak and Indian Peaks Wilderness Areas to the west and north. Wildflowers are abundant from late spring to early summer. Although there are no structures still standing there is plenty of evidence of the trail's mining history. This 4x4 trail can be a nice way to extend your adventure after exploring the trails around Oregon Hill and Dakota Hill or can be an alternate route to enter the area
