Overview

Great network of singletrack mountain bike trails. Closed to motors.

Great views of the Tetons from Southbound. Opens earlier than many of the area's trails.

Description

This network of trails is enjoyable to ride in any direction.

This is one suggested way to ride the area, but all trails are enjoyable to ride in any direction as either a loop or out-and-back.

Most trail junctions are marked with Carsonite post.
