Old Gold Run
The Madden Peak Rd is 6 miles east of Mancos on the north side of Hwy 160. A popular mountain biking loop includes climbing up the Madden Peak Rd dropping onto Old Gold Run to get down to the railroad grade and taking this back to where it intersects Madden Peak Rd. roughly 12 miles before turning right onto Old Gold Run single track. Take Old Gold Run 3 miles to where it bisects Starvation Creek Trail.
Starvation Creek Trail
You can take either direction as both lead back down to the RR grade. If travelling by mountain bike, I would recommend taking a left at this intersection. This downhill becomes incredibly rocky and loose. Please close the cattle gates behind you. This trail can also be ridden/hiked by itself accessed from the RR grade.
