Reviewed by MCKS on 11/4/2007 Excellent trails in the area! Was soo beautiful! Great for any level of hikers. Very dog friendly. 
Reviewed by JWJ on 10/25/2007 I've been to Shadow Canyon many times (saw a bear along the way a few weeks ago!) and I could swear that the direction to Shadow Canyon(west) is to the left, not to the right; Mesa Trail to the right, but the signage should clarify this.
Reviewed by shoobe01 on 5/17/2007 The hike description has some typos that make it impossible to find unless you already know the area. Corrected version of his text here ---- Trailhead: Make your way to CO-170 and CO-93 and head west on 170. About 1 mile before Eldorado Springs (which comes up pretty quick after 93 also) look for the Mesa trail head parking lot on your right. Another (unrelated) trailhead and parking area is on the left about 100 yards later, so you can turn around easily if you miss it. There are sevral hiking trails in the area. To hike this trail go towards the left and look for Homestead trail. After hiking for a while you will come to a fork; you can either go to Shadow Canyon to the right or the Mesa trail to the left.
