Hike - Coyote Ridge and Rimrock Trails

Distance - 6.9 mi round trip Elevation Gain - 620 ft Difficulty - Easy Time - 2:39 Description - This is a hike in the Coyote Ridge Natural Area and the Devil's Backbone Open Space. We started at the Coyote Ridge trailhead just off of Taft Road in near Fort Collins. We hiked west to Rimrock trail and stopped at the Blue Sky trail. It was a nive 7 mile hike roundtrip that took about 2 hours and 40 minutes. The weather was really nice for fall in the low 60's. It was a fun hike, but might have been more fun on a bike.
