Octo Hike – Brookside-McCurdy Trail - Payne Creek/Brookside TH

This is an Octogenarian hike but note the elevation gain at 3 miles in is slightly over 1000' so participants should assess their skills appropriately. Octogenarian hikes have a slower pace, and more rest stops. The TH is located outside of Bailey, CO off Hwy 285.
