Ram’s Horn Escape

85 miles +10,000 ft

Pure Colorado gravel. Big climbs, bigger views, and the kind of backcountry riding that leaves dust on your legs and stories for days. Rolling out from Town Hall of Gypsum, this course strings together remote forest roads, fast canyon sectors, chunky doubletrack, and high-alpine terrain that demands grit.

This is not champagne gravel. Expect loose corners, punchy pitches, washboard climbs, ripping descents, and long stretches where it’s just you, your bike, and the mountains. This course has a high point of 11,000 ft.

The route rewards smart tire choice, steady legs, and a willingness to get a little rowdy. Whether you’re chasing a podium or testing your endurance engine, the Ram’s Horn Escape delivers a full-value day in the saddle.
