Description

Hudson begins with a small, shallow climb at an intersection with Stairway to Heaven and quickly turns into a rapid descent towards Prayer Flag Road. The trail is very steep and mainly consists of loose, sandy terrain. Be aware of the roots and root drops you'll encounter as this bench cut singletrack whips you down the mountain.

Although there are a few decent vistas and aspen groves along Hudson, the trail is better for riding than for viewing; rip it!

Hudson is an okay option in the Emerald Mountain area that's steep, loose, and relatively narrow. 0.8mi — 0h 05m
