Light The "G"

Light The "G" The prominent white G painted on Rocky Point west of Gunnison has been an icon and source of pride for nearly 100 years.

Originally envisioned and built by local high school students in the 1920's, G Hill has become a landmark and source of pride.

The frontage trail on G Hill in Gunnison is now rideable. On the north end, it starts/ends on the top of the beginner loop and on the south end it starts/ends where there is a fence opening the side of a dirt road coming from 100 South and Farmers Freeway under the G.
So this is a two-way trail and I would rate the trail difficulty a blue trail with a few black diamond features thrown in. That was the plan in the first place, to make the trail a hiking slash technical bike trail. I like it, I can test my skills on this trail!

Today is the first work day for the Manti Trail Builders. With the crew of 10-14 workers, they are going to continue to work on the G Hill project this summer. This year, they will fix the trails on the back side that have been damaged and they will also do a few adjustments and add features. Then they will build a new 1.5 mile hiking or a little more technical mountain bike trail from the north bike trails to the G then it’ll go down towards the town of Gunnison. It will be a two way trail.
And if there is enough time in the summer, they will work on putting in a mountain bike skills park.
