Mt. Baldy

Narrow shelf road climbs to viewpoint above Colorado Springs.

Trail ends at a large gate below Mt. Baldy and south of Almagre Mountain. You can hike to both peaks. On a clear day, enjoy views of south Colorado Springs below. Great camp spots along first half of trail where it passes through Frosty Park. Difficult Eagle Rock, Trail #93, connects to Mt. Baldy Trail as it passes through Deer Park. Suitable for stock high-clearance SUVs provided no significant rock slides have occurred along F.S. 379A.

This road is used to service communication towers at the top of Mt. Baldy. It is usually maintained, but frequent rock slides along narrow ledge road 379A can make the road more difficult. If you run into a rock slide, you may have to back up a considerable distance to find a wide spot to turn around.
