Corkscrew Gulch

A drive over Hurricane Pass leads to a scenic trail that leads into the heart of old mining country. There is a lower part of the trail. The bottom end of the trail is the place to park and camp. One can look at Brown Mountain and Gray Copper Gulch, which are at the starting point of the first major fork. There is a side route in our ATV guides. There is a forest in the Uncompahgre National Forest. If you're needing current conditions call the Ouray Ranger District. A few sections of the road are frightening to novice drivers; the road is wide and graded most of the time. The trail gets harder if it is wet.
