Need to Know

This trail is fast and fun but please watch out for uphill trail users.

If you are looking for a longer ride from town that includes this trail please check out Baker's Tank and Aspen Alley loop from Breckenridge.

Description

From the Boreas Pass winter trailhead, go south past the gate and look for a singletrack on the west side of the road. The trail has been recently (2014) realigned and features numerous flowy berms through a beautiful aspen grove.

The trail terminates at a gravel driveway on the lower section of Boreas Pass Road (paved). If you would like to return to your car without riding other singletrack, take a right on the driveway back to Boreas Pass Road and climb back to the trailhead. Utilize Illinois Gulch Road to short-cut the climb back to the trailhead.

This trail is fast and fun but please watch out for uphill trail users.

Trees are changing and it's beautiful. You'll have to share the trail with tons of hikers. Do this trail early or mid week.

My first time here. Insanely gorgeous and just enough challenge to make me feel uncomfortable and forced me to work on my skills.
