It’s the most versatile natural area we’ve covered so far, and if you haven’t been here, don’t walk, run, bike, or hike there soon and experience the fall colors from this easy-to-access Fort Collins natural area.

A natural space where you can stop and grab a snack at a golf course, count me in. We hit the trail at the Mariana Butte for this month's NOCO Mapped. I would classify this natural space more closely as a trailhead compared to open space, as it does not have any area for communing, picnic tables, or flat land for kids or dogs to play. It does host an entrance to the Mariana Butte Trail system. 

This small natural area is perfect for a quick stroll or a stop by the river.

We have put together your guide to the sounds of summer, how to find all the free music around NOCO from Friday Fest in Greeley to the Summer Sunday series at Mishawaka (which took place in May but the last one is June 8th with Michael Morrow & The Culprits) you can see the schedules and locations for free music here. So enjoy the weather, grab a treat and get your dancing shoes ready!

Let’s take a look at what each space offers, the best for kids, dogs, and even a nice work from open space, each one has different benefits. Most importantly we are going to see how long I can before I run out of new open spaces.  This Month: Gateway Lakes Natural Space
