The parking lot here gets full fast.  Especially on nice weekends.  For a harder Galbraith Lollipop with fewer people, see the Nightbird Gulch Lollipop Loop below.  The Cedar Gulch trail is a much more chill way up than Nightbird!

​

Nightbird Gulch may well be the most technical trail in Golden.  It is steep, rocky and rugged!  You'll either love it or you'll hate.  Give it a try and find out which camp you are in.

This one combines the two routes that connect to the Galbraith Loop.  Its a really great out and back.  If you are feeling it, throw in the Galbraith Loop on your way out, your way back, or both (you are a beast)!
