Maggie Gulch - 2004

Maggie Gulch is a short but scenic trail up one of the valleys off County Road 110, East of Silverton.  Its an easy putt with one section of narrow shelf road.  The sun was getting low, and by the time I reached Silverton again it was dark.  County Road 110 is maintained gravel and can be ridden further to Animas Forks.

The start of Maggie Gulch.	Emerging from the woods after a short climb.	This place made me wonder what was around the bend.  The answer is a short climb through woods to get back onto the talus slope.	Looking down the valley after climbing a bit more.
Nearing the top (of the road that is).	Looking down from the top.	I couldn't spend much time up here 'cause I was loosing daylight.  There's a piece of old mining equipment to the right and down the slope a bit.
