The Electric Hills trail system is closed to all use Dec. 1-April 15.

Description

This trail climbs around a prominent butte locals call "Racing Strip Rock," with expansive views and a good rest/lunch spot at the top. You'll feel the therapy of stiff climbing, technical sections, and a fun descent. Just avoid the shock of falling off where the trail traverses above steep slopes. It is recommended to ride the trail counter-clockwise for a longer descent.
