Powderhorn Park #462

The Powderhorn Park Trail #462 begins at its intersection with the North Calf Creek Trail #460 and ends at the forest boundary where it continues onto BLM as trail #3024.  It travels its entire length in the Powderhorn Wilderness where Wilderness Regulations apply.  Panoramic views of the Cebolla Creek area are common as the trail wanders through forests and around hills on open side slopes.  It is not uncommon to see elk herds in Powderhorn Park in the summer.  The old cabin at Robbers Roost was part of a cow camp built in the 1920's.  Fishing can be good in the east fork of Powderhorn Creek.  Trail Map
