Welcome to my website !

This site contains a list of various trails in Colorado Springs area with photos, GPS tracks, relevant USGS topo maps and links to other useful websites.

The best way to access the data is using Google Earth program. This will enable you to view hiking trails in three dimensions with aerial imagery overlay plus you can see the exact location for many of my photos. You can also display trail maps directly in your browser by using the full screen google map option. You can chose from several different background overlays that google offers. If you have GPS unit you can upload the GPX tracks and waypoints from the site and use them to help with navigation.

I hope that the information provided here will help you with planning a hike and discovering new places. Please let me know if you have any comments or suggestions. Thanks for visiting and see you on the trail !

UPDATE: Due to the Waldo Canyon Fire large areas of the Pike National Forest remain closed until May 31st, 2013. Please see this map for closures. This affects several trails on this website including Stanley Canyon, Waldo Canyon, Williams Canyon, Dorothy Falls (Queens Canyon).
