Red Cone 3.0

Red Cone is another Jeep trail that has a reputation for being dangerous, when it is perfectly safe as long as you pay attention.

There is a one-way, somewhat steep, slippery and narrow, descent that is the area of concern.  If you go off you will die, but if you are slow and careful you will be OK.

This trail opens earlier than Webster Pass between US 285 and Montezuma.

There is a GPS - gpx track at the bottom of the page.

Bob Micklick was a good friend of ours.  Some of his ashes are spread here along one of his favorite trails.
