|
White
River National Forest
Available for both Cross Country Skiing, Snowshoeing,
and Snowmobile (until last 0.2 mile) the 4.56 mile Grouse Lake Trail
follows a dirt road for the first 0.25 miles until the road curves left
with Grouse Lake Trail continuing straight to a junction at 0.7 miles. At
this point the longer West Grouse Creek Trail travels to the right while
Grouse Lake Trail travels left. Traveling along Grouse Creek, Grouse Lake
Trail crosses the water 6 times and offers several steeper sections as it
climbs into the Holy Cross Wilderness and on to Grouse Lake. |

| To reach Grouse Lake Trail from
Vail Colorado, travel west along I-70 to exit 171 for Minturn Colorado,
Leadville and Highway 24. Turn right onto Highway 24 and travel south
about a mile to the trailhead parking lot on the right. |
