A few miles south of Divide CO, you'll find numerous eroded granite rock formations collectively called “The Crags.” The hike out to the granite dome from which you can view these stunning features is only two miles long. The trail is well marked (#664) and well travelled. Along the trail you’ll pass through forests of enormous quaking aspen, and you’ll trace the track of the beginnings of Four Mile Creek. At the end of the trail, you’ll surmount a wind swept dome from which you can gaze at the Rampart Range, Ute Pass, and the whole of the Catamount Creeks drainage, including the blue reservoirs that capture and control their release.

This is a great option for a day trip. You can make the four miles out and back in less than two hours, but only if you don’t succumb to the temptation to remain on the top of the mountain gawking and the scenery and marveling at the brazen Whisky Jack Jays that populate the wind twisted Bristle Cone Pines.

"Everything far exceeded our expectations. We will be staying there again! There is something to be said about staying in a Victorian Hotel, an amazing and adventurous experience. "

Twin Rock Cabin .Western Retreat. Family, Kids, Dog friendly.

10/10 Excellent

"Hosts were always quick to respond to any inquiry I had both prior too and during my stay! The cabin was absolutely perfect, well designed and building and land are very clearly well taken care of! Could not be more thankful that I booked Twin Rocks and all my thanks to how gracious the hosts were. Will absolutely stay here again on a 2nd visit to Colorado!"
