“A hearty climb that connects into the Greenhorn trail system from the south via Deer Creek Road.”

Snow flies in November and melts by June.

Description

This trail departs from Deer Creek Campground and climbs steadily into the popular Greenhorn System. The area is mostly wooded and riders will find cooler temps near the creek. Navigating is very straightforward thanks to easy signage and no junctions until the Red Warrior Trail.

The trail was recently reconditioned by the Ketchum Ranger District after the 2013 Beaver Creek fire and trail conditions are mint!
