Need help from CO members

[sbmitch2000]

I am looking for some easy fire roads/trails that head toward the Breckinridge area from Boulder. Maybe some nice scenery and places to stop and snap pics. Anything but another hour in I-70

Thanks MrMischeief, this gives me a great start to look at. Looking for something that is a 1/2 day or less and doesn’t have to be trails, just something other than back through Denver and another hour of interstate. I am really wanting to just get off major highways and see some of the countryside.

Boreas Pass is a great easy trip. Its an old railroad bed that goes from Como over the mountain and drops right into Breckenridge.

Boreas Pass is a nice drive especially in fall. Take 285 instead of I 70 and take CO-9 over Hoosier pass to Breckenridge. Coming back, use the same route but connect to 285 via Boreas pass instead of CO-9. If you have spare time take some detours to see lookout mountain/Buffalo Bill museum and Red Rocks Amphitheater.
