There are still patches of snow on the lee side of the loop making it take an hour longer. Overall, was a lot of climbing for not so much downhill.

Too much snow on the north/northwest sections to judge. Wait for next season.

I meant to ride this clockwise, but took the wrong turn and rode it counter clockwise. Clock wise would have been a lot more fun.

Obviously counter CW. Possibly still the best "trail" ride on the 'front range'. Raccoon section is legit bombed out.

This ride has what feels like a great deal of up, with not as much down. I did a fair amount of walking in both up and down sections

I rode it CCW at the suggestion of other riders on the trail. I think I'd prefer to do it CW. Will try that next time.

This was a beautiful ride! This is an up/down/up/down as Rx. The Racoon section is quite the climb.

A good trail. Felt split between up and down. Great cross country trail, less of a downhill bomber. Great views and a challenging or two.

A fun trail, but it could use some work as erosion has taken it's tool. Definitely avoid the Raccoon Trail (uphill section from the campground).

I give it an intermediate/difficult because of the amount of climbing, which takes a toll. Some sections involve some obstacles.

did the counter-clockwise loop. was more difficult going uphill, but flying down the meadow on the way back was so much fun
