Description

Just 0.75 miles up the Pettit Creek Trail #095, take a right and start climbing. The trail travels through sagebrush down low, but soon finds it's way into pine trees along the ridge and down over the side to Yellowbelly Trail #096 and Mays Creek Trail #192. This can be a dusty trail as the amount of use it gets is very high.

Difficult rocky hike a bike. More rideable on the way down to yellowbelly but still rocky and technical. Good views.
