Description

This trail is best done as a descent. From the top (near a watering trough - make your dog happy!), wind down through aspens and lush fern forest on skinny smooth singletrack. Break out into open meadow and make big sweeping turns with great views of town and mountains to the east.

The trail is flowy and fast - you can let it rip and know that you'll have plenty of traction to make the turns and no big technical moves to worry about. A highlight of the area.

This is an amazing piece of trail. Lots of smooth tread, with fun corners and great tight aspen/scrub oak sections and unbelievable open meadows.

Good trail. Took it a little slow due to the high vegetation and many corners and not knowing what's coming next. 1.2mi
