Grizzly Creek TH #2065

The trail begins in Glenwood Canyon and ends 3.5 miles above. The trail travels up from the Colorado River through the canyon cut by Grizzly Creek, following the creek most of the time. The first 1/2 mile of the trail is broad and fairly level offering good spots to have a picnic near the creek. The trail will become narrower and surrounded by dense, lush vegetation, some areas are very rocky at times. The last 1 1/2 miles are steep and covered with loose rocks with good views of Grizzly Creek and Glenwood Canyon near the top. Most of the area was burned in the 2020 Grizzly Creek Fire. Be aware of increased risk of hazard trees, falling rocks, stump holes, and flash flooding.
