Hiking – Stillwell Tunnel - Liberty Bell Mine
This is a doggie hike. Well behaved, leashed dogs are welcome to join me and my friendly golden retriever, Augie, on this hike to the Stillwell Tunnel, which supplies water to the Telluride storage tank. The initial climb up the Jud Wiebe Trail is consistently up-hill, levels out through Liberty Bell Flats and then a final climb to the Tunnel.

Meet at 8:00 am at the parking area on the west side of Hwy 550 at the Government Springs exit, just before mm 121. We will drive to Telluride and park across from the Telluride elementary school at Townsend and Galena. It is about a 0.25 mile walk to Tomboy Road at Oak St where the hike starts.
