Come Walk In Their Footsteps,
Flat Tops Trail Scenic Byway
by Geri Anderson
Geri Anderson's Come Walk In Their Footsteps lets you drive a
route in Northern Colorado that retraces the Flat Top Trails used from
American Indian days along a modern, if two lane, Scenic Byway. The
route serves ranchers, sheepmen, travelers, loggers, outfitters, hikers
and those who seek something a bit out of the way for their fishing
venue.
There's a National Forest section, and
the boundary to the 235,00 acre Flat Tops Wilderness is just a bit off
the Scenic Byway. While not a fishing guide per se, the clear, concise
directions to, from, by and around a number of fine lakes, and the note
that you can find cutthroat, brook, brown and lake trout here, are all
the clue the savvy angler needs to find some of the West's least crowded
and most underrated wild trout action. You can do it on your own or use
the included guide and outfitter listing.
Author Geri Anderson's been a resident of
the area for nearly ten years and makes her home there. Her extensive
trail experience in the Rocky Mountains, Vermont's Green Mountain and
the Appalachian Trail show in her concise directions and specific
recommendations.
