Hurd Creek- Water Board Road

Gravel Route
On County Rd 522, Fraser, Grand County, Colorado
The Denver Water Board Road is the key gravel link along the eastern flank of the Fraser Valley but it's a real love-hate kind of a road. As it cuts between drainages the climbs can be painfully steep. The descents are equally steep, which makes them difficult to recover on and over with too quickly before the road tips back up and you're climbing the next 11% pitch.
2 overlapping segments.
