I haven’t done Moon gulch from the start and it’s time! Moon gulch leads up to apex and then a bunch of other trail options open up. Miners gulch is a fun challenging trail nearby that would be fun to continue on with. Miner goes to Yankee Hill, options open up to head back north and could exit to Rollinsville road or come back out onto Gamble gulch or via Yankee hill. I’d be up for a day of exploring these trails Friday, Saturday or Sunday if anyone else is interested!
Meet up at the start of Moon Gulch, which is just south of the small town Rollinsville on Peak to Peak Highway (15 minutes south of Nederland)
Numbered trail below is Moon Gulch and you can see all the other trails in the area. The short red trail south of Moon is Miners gulch.
