Sleepy Lion Trail
The trailhead is about eight tenths of a mile from the parking area. You pass some sport climbs, a man made waterfall, and some large boulders in the North St. Vrain Creek.The trailhead is clearly marked on the left. There is some elevation gain at the beginning but nothing difficult. Once the elevation levels out you open up into this large meadow. I've made a mental note to visit it during a ...

I chose to sleep in a hammock (best night of sleep you will ever have) and my...

Hike the Ceran St. Vrain Trail
The Ceran St. Vrain trail north of Jamestown offers the hiker a nice respite from the summer sun as this path runs through dense pine forests. The trail follows the South St. Vrain Creek for most of the way and follows moderate grades throughout. There is no official end to the trail, only that it joins with the 801-252 Jeep road. This is it's unofficial terminus, although some maps will show c...
