Trail Information

Highlights

This is a great off-road trail that's close to Colorado Springs and provides a good challenge to vehicles that are a little more than stock but still offers some fun routes for more built rigs. There's also many trails in this area that you can explore that vary in level of difficulty. The drive up to the trail gives you great views of Colorado Springs. The first part of the trail consists of a large hill with rocks you must navigate through. There is a bypass for the first section, but the second area has similar rocks and some switchbacks. Most of the other obstacles have bypasses. There are a few creek crossings and areas that require you to squeeze through skinny spots in the trees. It's is an easy trip from the Springs but is also a nice getaway for camping.

Not suggested for your first timer rock crawler. It was awesome, definitely gets pretty flexy in areas. Make sure to have an experienced spotter

Had a blast on this trail. Didn’t really research it ahead of time but glad I did it. I went points 1-10 and then took FR379 back down. Stock ‘22 JT Rubicon. A little scraping but not bad. #4 The Big Hill was intimidating but doable, I stayed locked front and rear and really had no issues.

Very technical trail. Bypasses are overgrown. Lots of skid plate abuse and potential for door damage at lower section of trail.

Exited Mount Baldy through the back end of Eagle Rock. Little to no snow. Did the back half while it was raining. No issues. The V-Notch isn’t even a v-notch anymore. Just a gradual downhill road.

I was on a segment of Eagle Rock on Saturday, 4-15-2023. We didn't do the technical portion (Waypoint 1 to Waypoint 10) but entered on Forest Road 379 and came "above" Eagle Rock and drove from Waypoint 10 to Waypoint 14 as it is described in this guide. The snow was deep around WP 10, we found drifts that were 17 to 18 inches deep. All of our rigs were equipped with tire chains, winches, traction boards, and related recovery gear. We got to a point just beyond WP14 where the road is off camber for a long stretch. There were multiple deep snow drifts perpendicular to the road, each 10-15 feet wide, for as far as we could see. We decided to stop and circle the wagons, break out the grills, and have lunch. We returned down FR 379 the same way we came up.
