  Used to be the best place in Greeley, in the early 2000s it was nothing more than a dirt lot leading to a path surrounded by shrubbery and a nice natural setting. In the last couple of years it's really lost it's magic and attraction due to all the oil and gas taking over the area. There are rigs all throughout the trail that give off horrid smells and way too much noise to enjoy a day out. As well, it's become less and less dog friendly, used to be able to let fido run and chase balls all day in the openness but now however, dogs are ONLY allowed on pavement on a leash. In fact, last time I was there with my dog( who is very well trained) off leash playing fetch I was actually yelled, yes YELLED at by a City of Greeley employee informing me that I had to leash the dog or he would "have to make me leave". This was a huge let down and eye opener. The Poudre Trail in Greeley is not what it used to be. It's a shame that our natural recreation area is not dog friendly nor very inviting/attractive anymore. This is an example of an oil and gas county overtaking a small recreational conservation project. My apologizes to all other Greeley residents who feel the same.
