Description
This trail is best from South to North. It starts out with plenty of switchbacks that will get your lungs and legs warmed up! From there, it levels out with beautiful views and you will continue with classic XC riding wtih ups and downs. There is some more climbing towards the end, but then you have several miles of down, so enjoy!
Be sure to stop and take in the beautiful views.
This ride is intermediate. If you are a strong rider, it should not take more than 4.5 hours with short breaks, and if you like a slower pace or are a beginner, it may take upwards to 6 hours. Start early, as to avoid hot afternoons!
Parts of this trail are multi-use and you may encounter dirt bikes, horses and hikers.

Review: Locals can't come to a consensus on the way to ride this trail. Which means, of course, that it's fun both ways.
The trail isn't overly technical, but the length and elevation gain make it difficult... beginners shouldn't attempt it. Intermediate folk will suffer but have fun if all goes well.
Reviewer left out important information... this is a shuttle, drop a car off at either end then drive to the other end.

Review: Awesome views, great work out, not super strenous. Starts out a bit rough with the switchbacks and the small bursts of climbing at the end are trying, but it's sooooo nice!
Similar Trail: If you liked the Bangtail Divide trail, but could stand to suffer a little more, try the Curly Highline Trail!
