Rustler Gulch
Rustler Gulch (Crested Butte, CO)
Rustler Gulch is a short spur trail that takes off from the Gothic Road not too far from Schofield Pass. Also known as the Bellview Jeep Road, this trail skirts the edge of the Maroon Bells – Snowmass Wilderness area. The trail is only a little over two miles long and dead ends at the Bellview hiking trail which enters the wilderness area and heads to the Silver Spruce Mine on Mount Bellview.
Even though it is a short trail, it offers great views and some nice camping areas located in the Maroon Bells Wilderness area. There are also some great views of the East River Valley below as you climb out of it.
