Description

Y1 (Yellow 1) begins with a good climb from the trailhead. There are some steeper sections before the grade tapers off some for the rest of the ascent. There are a few stream crossings, and the trail is still being modified to avoid some wet areas. Yellow 1 opened in 2017 and will continue to expand in the years to come. Portions of the trail have a really great deep woods feel and Yellow One is very fun as a descent, too!
