“A long ATV trail that climbs steadily into the mountains.”

— Eric Ashley
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

This trail is the less-fun neighbor to Sidewinder. From where it begins down the road from the parking area, the wide doubletrack climbs through the canyon to an intersection with the Sidewinder Connector in a little over two miles.

From there, it continues to snake through the clumps of grass on the open hillside until a series of steep and closely packed switchbacks brings the doubletrack up the ridgeline. After a half mile of climbing, the trail ends at Leaning Fir #169.
