“An uber-fun intermediate trail with lots of variety.”

— Tyler Williams
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

From the Boyton Canyon Trailhead, head south on fun bermed turns and up and over little hills on red dirt like nature's pump track. At some point the fun is over and you have to climb up Doe Mountain. However, you'll be rewarded with some interesting downhill and some rocky sections as you continue down to the Aerie trailhead.
