Click on the trail abbreviation for local map. A "plus" sign (Trail Zone+) means that the trail or road is located in more than one zone. Trail usage; "H" = hiking, "B" = bicycling, "E" = equestrian, "V" = vehicular (does not mean public vehicle access but is indictative of width). PO = poison oak. BCW = Back Country Weekend.
Portion closest to Grand Junction is cleared, middle and farther portions have tall grass partly obscuring the trail.

| BMR | Bear Mountain Road (Interior) | 4.50 | H B E V | 03/26/22 | Open and clear. At least two creek crossings may require wading north of Little Long Canyon Road.

| BHT | Bill's Hill Trail (Phegley) | 1.50 | H B E | 04/01/22 | Lots of poison oak growing on the side of the trail on the steep part, leaving little room clear. The ridge portion was confusing, the map and gps track go across the fence, and if even you follow the fence without crossing it, you cannot get to the Hill itself. Trail is obscure through grass on top of Osos Ridge. First ravine crossing has eroded to a point where it is not advisable for equestrians. Excellent views from top. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by visitor Gilles B.) |
| BOST | Black Oak Spring Trail (Blue Ridge) | 2.28 | H B E | 06/18/22 |
The burned sign pointing to black oak spring on blue ridge road is gone. It was barely readable, but nevertheless useful, indicating the beginning of the trail. The top section of the black oak spring trail is complete obscured by grass. The flagging has deteriorated/gone. Unless one knows where the trail was or uses GPS, the top section of the trail is impossible to find. A quarter mile down, trail is more obvious, though still obscure by grass/fallen branches. The side trail to the spring also became overgrown. Lots of Italian thistle. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by Elena V720) |
| BRR | Blue Ridge Road (Blue Ridge) | 6.70 | H B E V | 07/02/22 |
Open and clear. Blue ridge road graded from Jackass to Sizer. Caution needed when descending from the ridge to Jackass, due to the deep powder. “Ranger Station” sign at Blue Ridge and Rock House intersection needs updating or removal. Lacks context.

| CNT | Canteen Spring Trail (Interior) | 0.75 | H B E | 04/13/21 | Open and clear but very obscure from Pacheco Creek to the spring. Watch out for deep pits where the trail crosses the ravine. Text on the spring marker at Pacheco Creek/Dog intersection is so faded it can barely be read. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by Rick V701) |
| CAT | Cattle Duster Trail (Mahoney) | 0.60 | H B E | 02/20/22 | Open and clear (narrow single track in spots, but easy to follow. Faded unreadable temporary sign at Coit Spring Trail. Trail marker at intersection of Cattle Duster Trail and Domino Pond Trail, only has one readable sign on it and that sign doesn’t have the trail name. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by Rick V701) |

| CT | Chapparal Trail (Orestimba) | 1.72 | H E | 03/18/22 |
No indication of the beginning of the trail on county line road. Overall trail is passable, fire helped a lot. Where not affected by fire, encroaching chamise, need to push through at places. At the last knob where trail starts to descend steeply it is possible to loose the trail, since the right way is blocked by large chamise bush. I built an arrow out of the rocks to point to the right direction. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by Elena V720) |

First ¼ mile obscured by grass, but flagged. Rest of trail down to the spring is free of brush but new bushes coming in the last 1/8 of a mile. Dormida Trail to Vasquez Trail - once trail heads steeply down it’s overgrown with grass. Easy to follow going down, but for some reason harder to follow on the way back up. Some flagging of the trail, and near the bottom the flags take an alternate path to the south of the actual path. The trail marker at the intersection of Dormida and Vasquez trails shows Vasquez trail going up towards to Vasquez peak, and up towards Center Flat, but does not call out Dormida Trail.

| DFT | Drift Fence Trail (Phegley) | 0.81 | H B E | 06/06/21 |
Open and clear Wagon Road to Vasquez Road. Over grown and hard to find/follow. Some well traveled game trails seemed like they could be part of the trail, then they cross the fence through the barbed wire. For a bit, could find/follow the remnants of an old road. Not on recent maps but an un-marked post remains where it meets WR. This was the original route to Vasquez Peak. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by Rick V701) |

| MST | Mount Stakes Trail (Orestimba) | 4.40 | H E | 03/20/22 |
Passable, difficult sections: Found a fallen trail post near junction with red creek road. Beginning of the mount stakes road is not obvious, one need to look up the hill for road cut. Once on mount stakes trail, couple of slides and some dense chamise growth makes the start difficult. As one hikes up, many fallen trees block the road. Spectacular wildflowers display. Once at the top, the trail post shows the the turn to pinto creek, sign is attached by one nail.
Mount stakes trail down to pinto creek: passable to difficult : The trail is very faint at the beginning and quickly disappears. The route follows the ridge top and is passable thanks to the fire. The right side was burned, and once you stay away from the non-burned chamise, you eventually made it down to pinto creek near the waterfall. I found remains of the trail post, melted into chunks of aluminium. (Posted by Sue V702 as reported by Elena V720)
