Rough and difficult in many places, the Big Hole Crest Trail (217) provides a considerable challenge to experienced mountain bikers. The trail begins near Pine Creek Pass at a junction with the Rocky Peak Trail (230) and Drake Creek Trail (238). Be prepared for a serious adventure as you traverse the Big Holes Range and enjoy spectacular views of the Teton and Big Hole Ranges.
