This trail is also called the Meyers Gulch Trail.
It is located on the Walker Ranch Open Space southwest of Boulder, Colorado.
It can be reached by driving west on Baseline Road. Once you reach Chataqua Park on the southwest corner of Boulder, the road starts to climb the foothill mountains and changes name to Flagstaff Road. Continue up this road until you reach the top. It's a crooked and steep drive.
Once you reach the top and start going down, start looking on your right for a sign indicating that you have reached Meyers Homestead Trail.
This trail is a nice hike or mountain bike ride. It has little shade, so make sure to use sunscreen.
If you are hiking or biking with children, be sure to pick up a brochure at the trailhead that will allow the youngsters to be trail detectives.
The trail is a total of 5.2 miles, out-and-back.
Watch for elk in the spring and fall.
This is the site of an old sawmill used by the Walker family to saw timber for their own personal use and to sell down in Boulder.

This aspen grove provides shade and scenery for tired bikers and hikers.
At the end of the trail, this bench offers rest and relaxation for tired mountain bikers.
