Radical Hill in Colorado provides yet another thrill for the avid 4-wheeler fan. Lots of rugged, rocky mountain terrain to challenge your 4-wheeler skills, and maybe even teach you a few new ones. The view from the top of Mt. Wise will take your breath away. Blue sky meets the mountain tops for miles. Along the 4-wheeler trail you'll find an old cabin near the top of Radical Hill that is a great place to stop and get a spectacular look at the picturesque valley below. And the countryside isn't the only thing you'll see. 4-wheeler riders aren't the only creatures enjoying Radical Hill. There's a pretty decent population of mountain goats all along the trail, and everyone knows, mountain goats are nature's original little all-terrain travelers.
The 4-wheeler trail at Radical Hills covers over 20 miles, looping all around the Swan River area. Much of the adjacent 4-wheeler trail stays above the tree line. This 4-wheeler trail will keep you riding all day if you take time to see all the natural sights.
Let's take a virtual tour of the 4-wheeler route. Follow 4-wheeler trail 285 toward Webster Pass and then turn at the sign toward Deer Creek. Stay above the tree line and follow the signs to the North fork of the Swan River. Turn left at Swan River and follow the trail to the Middle Fork of the Swan River. 4-wheeler Trail 6 will take you back to the top of the Mountain. Turn left at the top and follow the signs to Deer Creek and Montezuma. This will take you back to the parking area.
A few tips for 4-wheeler riders riding the Colorado trails:
Weather can change fast. Start the 4-wheeler trail early in the morning to avoid afternoon thunderstorms. Always go 4-wheeler riding with a partner and let some one know what 4-wheeler trail you are using and when you'll be back. Make sure your 4-wheeler is in good condition before you begin. Always use safety equipment such as a helmet and goggles when riding your 4-wheeler.
Bring along extra gas for those long 4-wheeler trails. Pushing an 4-wheeler is a lot less fun than riding one!
