This popular 32-mile trail in the White River National Forest gets a heavy amount of use from ATV riders. There are a lot of activities going on around and on the ATV trail itself such as : ATVing, camping, cross-country skiing, fishing, four-wheeling, hiking, horseback riding, motorcycling, and snowmobiling.
These 32 miles of ATV trails are great for newer ATV riders to learn how to truly maneuver their ATVs and pick up additional knowledge, skills, and build their confidence for taking on more agressive ATV trails in the future.
The only word of caution for all ATV riders on this stretch of road is that it is very dangerous and slippery when wet. Do not drive on it if it looks like it might rain or has recently rained; your personal safety and other people's isn't worth it.
Normally, this is a beautiful drive through aspen forests and some meadows with wildflowers with your ATV. Some people use this road to get between Eagle and the Reudi area, and also to access hiking trails and stream fishing.
If you brought your fishing gear on your ATV and your fishing license is handy, park your ATV and indulge yourself in a little fishing at Crooked Creek Reservoir.
This is a beautiful and easy drive when conditions are dry. From Crooked Creek Pass you can continue on to Sylvan Lake State Recreation Area and the town of Eagle. You can also access the Eagle Lake trail, Burnt Mountain Road and Lime Park. From Burnt Mountain road you can access Tellurium Lake and Last Chance Gulch trails all from this area. Burnt Mountain Road and Lime Park both have relatively easy ATV trails leading to them, the Last Chance Gulch trails are aptly named as they have a high degree of difficulty in some places and should not be attempted by inexperienced ATVers.
