East Side Epic
The East Side of Leadville has some great dirt to ride and run up. Taking 5th or 7th East out of town will lead you back to endless dirt to explore. Zig zag through old mining ruins and get epic views of Leadville, Turquoise Lake and beyond. It is definitely a climb heading out of town, but the cruise back makes up for it.
While everyone heads West to ride the iconic Leadville 100 route, enjoy the East Side. If you are riding the Silver Rush 50 - This is also a great place to start.
As of 6/12 - Here is a dry route up 3 and around.
