Description

This trail was created with Forest Service permission to "re-route" the original Root Canal trail. The result is a great trail with a combination of naturally challenging trail features and some man-made obstacles for advanced riders.

To access Re-Root from the trailhead at the Peak to Peak Highway and Magnolia Rd, start climbing Aspen Alley Trail #342A and take the left at the fork 0.1 miles in. After a quarter of a mile, the trail crosses Haul Rd and continues for nearly two miles of winding singletrack interspersed with 5-6 technical alternative lines.

Most of the big technical moves are pretty obvious when you come to them, and they all have ride-arounds so you aren't forced into anything you don't want to ride.

This section of trail can be ridden by intermediates, but will get advanced riders grinning ear to ear.

Rolling through the aspens on Re-Root.

It's more than 45 degrees steep, but rollable with a clean rampy exit.  And there's a ride-around.

Fast and fun through one of the few remaining nice stretches of forest.

The drop isn't bad, but the entrance is tricky.  There's a ride-around.
