Description

A great trail system with easy access from McCall. There is a bike path under construction to connect the trail system to McCall that should be completed by the Spring of 2015.

The Grand Traverse takes you across the trail system on an easy grade. The trail starts off the Polar Express Trail and takes you all the way to Ditch Witch. You'll cross The Drain at around the half way point. The trail is very flat and and there are a couple technical features along the way so keep your eyes out for those. After pass The Drain the trail descend gently with some twists and then the last part of the trail turns down for a fast descent into Ditch Witch. This trail is great to tie in with others to form a nice loop.
