Templeton - This trail is an advanced version of the Palmer Point Trail. It has many ups/downs and zigs/zags (those are technical trailrunning terms) and follows the mesa (just below the ridge line) and looks down on the Palmer Pt Trail. It has great views of Pikes Peak and other areas of the park. Parts of this  trail are used in the PPRR Fall Series race. Due to the advanced nature of this trail, you will come across less mountain bikers and horses than with the Palmer Point Trail. Black 4.3
