Off-road Corkscrew Gulch Road, Colorado

This scenic trail cuts through the heart of old mining country as it winds between Red Mountain #1 and #2. Watch for logging trucks on lower part of trail. You can park and camp at bottom end of trail off Highway 550. From the bottom, you can also explore Brown Mountain and Gray Copper Gulch, which is left at the first major fork, marked as Brown Mountain. This side route is described in our ATV Trails Guide Colorado Silverton, Ouray, Lake City, Telluride. Located in Uncompahgre National Forest. For current conditions call Ouray Ranger District (970) 240-5300 Rating: Easy when dry. The road is wide and graded most of the way; however, one section of narrow switchbacks at the top may be intimidating to novice drivers. If wet, the trail becomes more difficult due to slippery clay soil.
