Brush Creek Road TH #1695
The first mile of the Brush Creek Road is steep and leads through sagebrush offering an excellent view of Green Mountain Reservoir and the Lower Blue River Valley. This road offers solitude as well as an opportunity to view wildlife. Once in the trees the trail becomes increasingly narrow. The road ends at the Brush Creek Trailhead, no motorized or bicycle traffic is allowed beyond this point.
