Description

This trail departs Summit Trail at a gate (make sure to close it behind you) and ends at Old Happy Jack Road. The first section is a steep rock and root covered descent that can be a bit tricky. The middle section can be wet as it crosses perennial streams and is not well maintained. The final section features some fantastic, twisting singletrack that flies through a beautiful bit of prairie. To avoid the more challenging part of the trail you can connect to the lower section from Aspen Trail.

Dry - Pretty dry and in good condition, some mud at creek crossings, but there are skinny bridges that you can use on most of them.
