Description

Eureka Peak is a short route. It makes a great loop when combined with Still Creek Road (Forest Road 2612) clockwise to Kinzel Lake Road.

Start the trail from Kinzel Lake Road, descending through both young lodgepole pine and older stands of Douglas Fir. The route is a continuous steady downhill, with steep sections in the middle, best suited for riders with some experience. The bottom part of the route crosses a creek before finishing at Still Creek Road.

Rode this as an OAB from the top down. Several trees across the trail. The ascent is pure hike a bike. Not much fun. 3mi — 1h 00m
