Trail Information

Highlights

This is a connecting trail between Colorado Springs and Victor & Cripple Creek. It’s the access road to trails like Mt. Baldy, Bull Park, and some small off-shoots. For the most part it’s a scenic drive that ends at a nice valley view before turning into Gold Camp Road (South). This is a fun drive for anyone wanting to see a little of Colorado and a must-travel for those wanting to get to the trails and shooting spots in the area.

Road was clear and seems to get plowed/used frequently. Off shoot trails have some snow pack. A week before there was deeper snow halfway through but nothing extreme. Scenic and nice half day drive.

We cruised Old Stage to Gold Camp to get to Victor from the Springs. Both were expectedly covered in packed snow with sections of ice, but luckily we didn't run into any situations that required us to stop suddenly, as doing so (or starting again) could have been difficult or impossible.

Technically open but the weather and road conditions made for a very challenging drive. Driving into CO springs, we hit a few areas that were icy and super slick, thankfully very few cars on the road because we slid off thee road and thankfully into the wall and not off the edge. Ended up making it off the mountain but very challenging right now and likely worse in the coming day as it was raining but freezing so the likelihood of more ice is high but depending on equipment, you may be fine.
