Chinaman's Gulch Trail is a 4x4 trail that is less than a mile from Johnson Corners. When coming from Denver you make a left turn (south) on county road 301. You proceed till you see the prison sign that says there is no stopping. Immediately after the sign there is a gate on the left open the gate an proceed to the next gate making sure you close the gates behind you. After the second gate there is an open area where you can air down. Make a left here to the trail head. Straight will take you to Carnage Canyon a 10+ trail.

Airing down just past the second gate.

Lining up to begin the trail.

The trail starts out with a little rocky section. This is a loop trail so there is no real way to get lost.

The first obstacle is the squeeze a fairly tight jog through some rocks. Not hard for Dan with a short wheel base but could cause a long wheel base to leave some paint. A little further on you hit the loop and make a choice to go either left or right. Left allows you to go down the major obstacles. This is the way we went, the next time we will be going to the right as we ended up going down the obstacles and turning around to go back up them.

A little further down the trail there are a few little moguls. Here's Roy on one. Can you say tippy.

There are many small obstacles. Here's Dan on one.

And Mark n Sherri on another.

But there really are some good size obstacles like double whammy 2.

After going down Mark decides to go up the whammy.

Dan does the same.

Roy not to be out done.

Continuing on Dan finds a small obstacle to go over.

Mark shows a little flex across a good size rock.

Roy decides to hit a tree. We now call this Roy's tree.

Here is Dan coming down the right side.

Roy coming down the moderate middle.

Mark coming back up the moderate middle.

Roy coming up the middle.

We then watched a couple big dogs with 39's go up the far left line.

Even with 39's he needed some extra weight on the front to get him up.

From here we wandered back down and exited the same way we came in. A fun trail with some good obstacles. We all completed the trail with no breakage and had a great time.
