Trail Overview

Pawnee National Grasslands offers a distinct landscape of wide-open views and rolling hills with ample opportunities for recreation. This area is a checkerboard of National Grasslands, State of Colorado, Central Plains Experimental Range, and private lands. The area contains numerous Forest Service Roads that may be explored individually or can be linked together for hours of enjoyment. The crisscrossing two tracks lead in many directions so pay close attention to posted signs and designated maps. Crow Vally Loop is an easy two-track trail in dry conditions. Drivers should be cautious in wet conditions. There are some areas where the roadbed is heavily rutted and areas that will collect standing water, making for muddy conditions.
