Route Description for County Line Trail
If you are looking to get the family out on the trails and want to do so along a laidback and easy to manage route, then the County Line Trail will be a great option near Grand Mesa that will allow you to explore the natural beauty of the region.
Setting out from the trailhead alongside CR65, you will make your way to the northeast and keep right at the fork in the path to make your way through some light tree cover. Here, you will continue on to the northeast, enjoying the tranquil woodland setting as you stroll through intermittent meadows and make your way past the shores of Scales Reservoir 1.
After passing by the water’s edge, you will keep on to the northeast to loop around Scales Reservoir 3, eventually turning to the southwest in order to meet up with Forest Service Road 118. Here, you will make your way along the road to the southwest and it passes by the two reservoirs. Shortly after passing by Scales Reservoir 1, you will pick up a footpath branching off to the left and follow it back through the forest to the southwest on the return to the trailhead.
