Red Cone trail is an iconic Colorado trail that runs along with the continental divide up to 12,800+ feet above sea level, then down to Webster Pass. Known for it's steep descent from the peak to Webster Pass, this trail will give you everything an off roader could ask for. From breath taking scenery of alpine Alpine forest at the start of the trail to the zone above tree line that gift you with stimulating mountain vistas that exposes endless peaks in every direction. And yes there are a few "rocks to play on" in the lower section.

Taking the Southern turn at Webster will put you on Hand Cart Gulch which will loop you back to the start of Red Cone Trail.
The trail is easy to moderate.

The loop is only accessible mid July to early October each year so planning is key for this trail.

Round trip with stops, the trail can take up to 5 or even 7 hours. Make a day of it.

Don't rush and bring your camera.
