Description

Nice fast and smooth singletrack from St Louis Cr Rd to Elk Cr Rd. It's a moderate climb with nice flow and scenery through meadow and clear but forest. It's good in either direction because you'll do a climb and descent either way you go. This one is used in several of the Winter Park series race courses.

This is actually a pretty good downhill run from Broken Spade, with BAD sightlines. Hit on a quiet day.
