Description

From the Aerie trailhead, the trail makes a semicircle around Doe Mountain. Most of the trail is mellow singletrack, but there are a few short steep challenges. Along the north side of Doe Mountain is some abandoned 2-track that the Forest service is trying to groom slowly into more enjoyable singletrack.

Good ride. I would start at Fay, connect to Cockscomb and then ride Aerie.
