The first three miles is good singletrack followed by a popular jeep trail. Expect to encounter several jeeps, motorcycles and other off road vehicles. The first three miles is easy singletrack at RR grade. Fun DH back to trailhead, narrow at times, trees close together.

Generally just up, up, and more up to the mine. Some okay views, but nothing really until you're nearly at the top. It's an easy grade, so not too hard for beginners, and there are a couple of interesting landmarks along the way. The trail shares a 4x4 road for a while.

The west side of Argentine Pass is treacherously technical!!! Once you climb past Waldorf Mine on the east side, the climbing gets more difficult to reach the pass at 13,200 ft. While the east side is jeep road, the west side is barely singletrack at times. Use caution coming down the west side because a slip to the downhill side could have VERY serious consequences.
