Description: Gudy Gaskill is a fairly new trail in the Jeffco system. Access is via the Beaver Brook trail. We get there via Genesee, the Mt. Vernon Country Club area. You can also get there from Lookout Mountain Rd (Windy Saddle) or Chief Hosa, making for much longer runs. There are great views overlooking Clear Creek Canyon. It can be icy in the winter; it's shaded and has a lot of N facing trails.

Directions: Take I-70 to the Genesee exit, #254, at the buffalo overlook. Go north ~½mi to  Ralston Elementary School. Meet in the school lot. There are no bathrooms or changing facilities there.
