Standing water and mud await your journey on this 15-mile trek through the high-country forest near Cameron Pass in the upper Poudre Canyon west of Fort Collins, Colorado. Even during the driest parts of the summer season, water holes with 36” of standing water are abundant and common. Early season off-roaders will find water even deeper when the trail opens after the spring snowmelt. This is not a technical trail but the risk of getting stuck and actually using that winch for more than a conversational piece is real. Find a like-minded off-roader to go with you and hit the trail for a day of beautiful scenery with a drive through an adult off-road water park.
Green Ridge Trail is the third leg of the three-trail loop known as the “Mud Loop.” Off-roaders will combine Sevenmile Road, Bald Mountain (USFS517), and Green Ridge Trail as a day-long trifecta where you will experience a diet full of rocks, water, and mud. Green Ridge Trail is, by far, the wettest and muddiest in this loop that starts and ends in the Poudre Canyon.
