Description

The bottom of this trail starts off of Highway 6 and starts the climb immediately with some exposure on the left. It goes past the intersection with the Snake River Bluff trail and turns right into a wooded area. After a hardy climb, the trail crosses the Landfill Road and climbs up into a wooded section. The singletrack ends on the road just below (500 yards) the Oro Grande Trail. In the reverse, the trail delivers a fun ride down with a few steeper sections.

Just take road, trail is cut sloppily with tint sharp stumps. Smells even more of garbage in kind wind. There's a few good bank turns on the way down. — 0h 15m
