Hubbard Canyon #704 the Forest Service's write-up

season May to

The Hubbard Canyon Trail #704 begins at a parking area at the north end of, Condemn It Park Road, Forest Service Road #704, which is also the Gunnison National Forest boundary. The first mile or so of the trail is open to horseback and mountain bikes, but soon becomes impassable to all but foot traffic. It is an old road that has been washed out in spots and covered over by mud and rock slides in other places. This has left the trail in a bad state of repair with sections that are nearly impossible for horse traffic and so horses are not recommended. The north end of the trail ends at private land.

About this trail's facts

The lines are the US Forest Service's National Forest System trails layer (public domain), read 2026-10-16 and simplified for the map; the length is the line's, end to end, and the class, surface, grade and tread width are the forest's own entries where it publishes them - a forest that publishes the centreline alone has none. The trailheads and the points along the way are the Service's recreation points, and the write-ups its own recarea text, unedited. Heights come from USGS 3DEP through Terrain Tiles on AWS (Mapzen/Tilezen), read along each line and rounded; a short trail on steep ground can be off by a few tens of feet. Closures change: check the forest's own site before you go.
