Page 36 - Volume 3 - Walks In The Black Range

The most common birds along the trail always seem to be Dark-Eyed Junco (Grey- headed) but the variety of species is interesting - from Mountain Chickadee and Mourning Dove (photos below) to Clark’s Nutcracker.
This trail is great in any season, assuming the road is open. It has open expanses on one hand and sections of trail completely enclosed in aspen and evergreen on the other. The colors vary dramatically by season so a walk along this section of the Black Range Crest Trail is always new.
