Waterton Canyon (rescheduled from January)

About This Event

Meet time: 9:30 AM – arrive a bit earlier to park and get ready. Location/Meetup point: Waterton Canyon Trailhead parking lot (around 11300 Waterton Road, Littleton, CO 80125 or 11000 W Waterton Rd). Big open gravel lot with restrooms near the entrance; popular groups meet near the bathrooms or trail start. Ride info: Out-and-back on the main road (paved/gravel for first ~6.2–6.5 miles to Strontia Springs Dam/Reservoir), gentle climb (~700–1,300 ft gain round trip depending on distance), then downhill back. About 13 miles round trip to the dam—group-appropriate pace. No dogs allowed (to protect sheep). Open year-round, dawn to dusk. Parking: Free but fills up on weekends—aim for 9:00 AM to get a spot. No overnight parking. Rules/Tips: Stay right on the road and share with other bikes/hikers. Bring water/snacks (no early-season water faucets), and layers for March weather (could be warm; check the forecast). Hosted by Zhen and Samuel. Great for road/hybrid bikes, beginners welcome. RSVP so hosts know who's coming; rain/cancellation updates will be posted on the event page.
