Description

There are several places where you can get on/off the trail so it's pretty easy to turn this into whatever kind of ride you like. Most people ride it bottom to top and back down again. With two-way traffic you'll want to stay alert on the climb for uphill riders. Keep your speed in check as there are many blind corners, so stay on top of it!

This trail showcases a couple short, rocky sections, so pick your line carefully. Additionally, ascending this trail is steady climbing the whole way. Overall the trail is not too steep, but there are a couple of short, steep sections that will keep your heart and lungs pumping.

Turned around at Big Mountain. Chased a bull moose up the switchbacks (unintentionally). Great ride! 10.3mi — 1h 26m
