Think I rode this the wrong way | Green Lake Trail and Baxter Gulch at Crested Butte, Colorado

Sheesh I hope to be sending it like you when I’m fifty. I went up Baxter and just came back down it, they added a flow trail and jumps you can see from the lot.

I saw on the CB Facebook page that they added new lines at the bottom 👍

I don't know the best direction for this. Trail reports state that descending Green Lake Trail is not that great either as it lacks flow and is broken up by the road. I would certainly be willing to try it once more in the opposite direction though. If you've ridden this, what direction do you prefer?

Would it be best to do Green Lake as an out and back?

[@Roaming50]

I think the preference is to go up Baxter Gulch, and down green lake. Going up Green Lake is not that much fun.

@@Roaming50 Going up Baxter is easier? I need to look into that route

[@offdaystv]

When you get to the first Fire road on the green lake climb, did you take a right or a left?
