Maggie and Minnie Gulches in Silverton, CO

Maggie and Minnie Gulches are great trails for dirt bikers of all skill levels. They’re very easy and can be done in only an hour or two (with time included for photos). The staging area for these trails is off of CR 2 at Middleton. We enjoyed seeing the old mills, machinery, and waterfalls. Add this trail to your list the next time you’re near Silverton. The trail wasn’t busy and we didn’t see anyone once we got past the shelf road.
