Mountain Bike
Super easy singletrack with a couple of very short challenging sections. Very possibly the best beginner's trail on the Front Range and just a lovely little park. Going clockwise on the Shadow Pine loop, the downhill section just seems to feel longer than what you earned on your climb. Adrenaline junkies should go past the first entrance and then go past the second entrance and then just keep driving until you find a different ride. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
