An old 4x4 route but a fairly worn singletrack with a few small technical moves and few short steep climbs await.

Description

The Ridge area contains a network of singletrack that can be ridden in a variety of ways depending on how long you want to ride. The trails consists of well defined singletrack that is in some places steep and technical. Would not recommend for a beginning rider.

The summit ridge has good views of Durango and the surrounding mountains. This is an excellent place to go if you want to get a quick ride right in town.

For a short ride, this is the best route up to catch the middle of Ridge then down Snake Charmer or Medicine or other easier trails.

At this point on the trail it is a good idea to hang a hard right. Most of the exposure is psychological. You would have to work fairly hard to go off the trail but definitely intimindating for less experienced riders.
