One of the best ways to experience fall colors around town is on the Town Loop, either by bicycle or on foot. From Mammoth Creek Park West, cross over Mammoth Creek and follow the path west along the willows, alders and golden aspen groves along Old Mammoth Road. From the end of the path, continue to Sherwin Street and turn left. At the end of the street, cross back over Mammoth Creek and rejoin the path as it climbs to Eagle Lodge, affording good views across the valley to the Sherwins. Continue on the Town Loop to the Lodestar Connector and ride out and back along the west side of the golf course. Ride back down the way you came.
