Description

The Mackinaw Trail runs from the dam on the eastern edge of North Catamount Reservoir to the intersection of Mule Deer Trail and Blue River Trail.

The path is mild in elevation change as it winds in and out of the shoreline and is free of technical obstacles, which gives you time to take in the scenery. The views from the edge of the reservoir towards Pike's Peak is breathtaking.
