Driving Instructions to meetup location (ARGO TOURS BUILDING) - https://maps.app.goo.gl/3G2shge3LYNpyheWA

If you are unfamiliar with Virginia Canyon, it's the newest Mountain Bike Park in the Front Range. This will be my first time there, so I hope we can get someone who has already been there to sign up for this ride. We will stick to the green trails as we work our way up the mountain. I'm not certain yet which trails we want to take coming down. We will likely want to avoid the crazy black stuff or break into two groups to accommodate the more adventurous riders in our group. Class 1 E-MTBs allowed.

• We are meeting in front of the ARGO Tours Building at 2350 Riverside, just to the right of the ARGO Mine. Then up to Rosa Gulch.
• Trailhead Location: The Rosa Gulch trailhead is located above the Argo Mill and Tunnel, near the mouth of Rosa Gulch, close to Riverside Drive.
• Current Parking Situation: As of summer 2025, parking at the Argo Mill or directly at the trailhead is not allowed due to ongoing construction and site management. You must park elsewhere in town and ride or walk to the trailhead.
• Recommended Parking: Park in downtown Idaho Springs, such as along Colorado Boulevard, at public lots, or at Shelly/Quinn Ballfields Park. Use the Clear Creek Greenway trail to connect from town to the trailhead.
• Access Route: From your parking spot, follow the Clear Creek Greenway toward the Argo Mill.
