Recreation Region: Eagle - Holy Cross Ranger District
Mitchell Creek Loop TH (winter)
The Mitchell Creek Loop Trails begin and end at US Hwy 24 - Tennessee Pass: The Mithcell Creek area offers two short 2.5 mile loops or the longer 7.5 mile Mitchell Creek Loop. This is mostly gentle terrain through lodgepole pine forest with a few climbs and descents mixed in. The Mitchell Creek Loop uses portions of the Colorado Trail, some winter-only trail, and short pieces of Forest roads, so make sure to bring a map or simply do an out and back.
