Rio
Grande National Forest
Available to ATVs & motorcycles, Pole Creek Trail begins
as a natural climb along the lower east slope of Pole Creek. Although not
visible from the trail, the sound of falling water may be heard about 0.25
miles south of the junction with West Pole Creek as a series of small
waterfalls may be viewed along Pole Creek.
To reach Pole Creek Trail from Creede Colorado, travel
southwest along CO 149 for 20.1 miles to it's intersection with FR 520
(Rio Grande Reservoir/Upper Rio Grande Road). Continue along FR 520 for
about 23.5 miles (last 7.5 miles 4WD) to the trailhead which is located
just before the road crossing at Pole Creek.
