Description

This is a variation of the valley floor trail that goes between 145/ Lawson Hill and Town. For a less technical return to town there is another entrance at the pullout on the east side of 145. This option adds a 5 min climb and one moderately techy downhill section before joining the valley floor proper. Not super exciting, but one of the best return options for riders coming off the mountain.
