Description

Southside is steeper and more technical than the profile gives credit. If riding CCW, expect a couple of loose, punchy stingers along the way.

The travel begins near the midpoint of Illinois Creek and merges with Illinois Creek Low behind the ice rink.

The southern half of Southside winds through an aspen grove, making this a great alternative route for leaf peeping.
