Holy Cross Trail Is Outstanding
Located in the high peaks of central Colorado, the Holy Cross Trail was honored by BFGoodrich Tires as one of its 2010 Outstanding Trails. Off-road enthusiasts and members of the Big Horn Jeep club were in attendance as BFGoodrich presented a grant to the club's president. The grant will be used to preserve the scenic trail and continue conservation efforts for one of America's most beautiful areas for four-wheeling. BFGoodrich Tires, working in conjunction with Tread Lightly!(r) and United Four Wheel Drive Associations (UFWDA), chose the Holy Cross Trail because of its beauty and challenge that it presents to off-road enthusiasts. Celebrating its five-year anniversary, the BFGoodrich Outstanding Trails program is dedicated to the responsible use, and preservation of, off-road trails while providing aid in the trails' conservation efforts. Since its inception, the program has also given more than $70,000 in grants to clubs and seen more than 2,500 participants at trail events.
