Cedar Mountain Road

Cedar Mountain Road near Divide, CO, is a poignant journey through the 138,000-acre burn area of the 2002 Hayman Fire. The land is finally showing signs of life two decades after the devastating event. Skeletal trees punctuate the landscape, their blackened trunks standing as stark reminders of the fire's fury. They now guard lush patches of forest floor and ambitious saplings. Sweeping views of this regrowth, framed by Colorado's azure skies, create an awe-inspiring backdrop for the drive. With the mild off-roading terrain and stunning scenery, this trail is an unforgettable Colorado experience.
