“An exhausting workout, but well worth it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 4, 2012

First of all, I think it's Jud not Jed.
This trail starts in town, and almost makes a complete loop (it ends along Tomboy Road, and it's easy to find your way back to town from there). I hiked it near the end of the leaf-peeping season, and there were still some great areas of aspen leaves still on the trees. Other areas were bare, which was still okay. At the top, you get a fantastic view of the valley and Telluride. I ended up finishing the trail after sunset, but before it was completely dark. The sunset through the skeleton trees was incredible!

“Tough but worth it.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 12, 2012

If you don't live at altitude, you'll huff and puff doing the climbing part, but it is SO worth it. Breathtaking views of Telluride canyon and surrounding snow covered peaks.

“Nice views of Telluride but stick to the trail”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed September 28, 2012

I entered from Aspen Road. It's a nice easy hike up the cliff. Great views of the city. There is a spot where you can stop and sit and take a break. But when you start again, be careful to find the main trail. I found a smaller one and ended up down in a canyon. It was a fun challenge to get back out but I did.

“Challenging hike/Great views”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 23, 2012

I liked the close proximity to town and the challenging ascent through picturesque aspens and amazing views of town below. What I didn't care for was the last mile, which was on a dirt road, but that's just me.

“Lovely hike that starts right in town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 23, 2012

This hike gives you a beautiful view of the town, ski resort and the box canyon at the end of town. It helps us understand the lay of the land.
