Description

Flowy, fast, and surprisingly technical sections make up this singletrack trail. You'll descend just as fast as you climb, ride up ledges, ride off ledges, cross creeks (dry and wet), pass neighborhoods, and even find an old rock creek bridge. Ride all of Backbone to Cornville or pick from several other trails in this network to make a loop back to the parking lot.
