Overview

Getaway is another good singletrack option in the Mag 7 system.

Description

As the easier way down the Mag 7 system, Getaway provides plenty of flow as well as chunky descents when taken at speed. As you continue downhill, the trail becomes steeper and then mellows out into meadows down Gemini Bridges.

The last third of Getway rolls fairly level and ends at a three-way intersection with Arth's Corner and Great Escape. Time to choose your next descent!

Enjoy fun flowing descents on the upper section of Mag 7's Getaway.

Twists, turns, changing surfaces and dramatic scenery fill this ride with excitement.

A good way to add some elevation and extended ride time in the desert, to the Magnificent 7 shuttle.

Fun, winding decent on a rocky singletrack with Darcy.

The bottom couple miles of this trail are an easy roll through the hard-pack sand a sagebrush.
