Chapman Drive is a lovely forested hike up an old access road to Flagstaff Mountain. Bikes are allowed, but it's nice and wide. We will hike up to our lunch spot at May's Point, which has a great view of the Continental Divide. It is sort of a big slick rock area, with boulders to walk around and an area or two of very minor "scrambling" (you may want to use your hands for two or three steps) There is no exposure on the trails. Some parts of the trail have loose gravel, we will take our time on these areas.
