“Mellow and scenic doubletrack.”

— Chris Wandervans

GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Can be snow-covered, December through March.

Features: -none-

Dogs: Off-leash

Description

The area recently burned and is currently closed to motorized users in 2015, but open to mountain bikes, so it is nice and quiet out there.

The trail tends to stay on the ridgeline as best as it can and sidehills around the steeper sections. The trail is not overly exciting, but is a scenic ridge ride with reasonable grades.

There are lots of connecting trails around that can be used to make this ride into a loop.
