Clear Creek Trail (Uncompaghre NF #516)
A hike off of South Divide Road, through aspen with views to the southwest over the West End.
The beginning trailhead and the ending trailhead are both off Divide Road (NFSR #402). From west to east, Clear Creek Trail (#516) follows the plateau rim to the west, drops a thousand feet to a bench, and heads back east where it follows Clear Creek up to Divide Road. This is about 9 miles, or 11 miles if you hike along Divide Road (NFSR #402) back to the start.
