TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail
reviewed by pdinsurance on October 3, 2010
This is a very hard climb with very little relief going up. The trail includes alot of technical sections, couple washed out sections, and the tundra riding is very narrow, and not to mention that the entire climb is steep. You will find yourself doing a little bit of hike-a-bike. Trail is very well marked, and is an epic ride.

This trail is worth a ride. You can do it as an out-and-back or go all the way to Camp Hale. Most of the route is rideable, although you may end up pushing when you get to the tops of the passes.

This is a fantastic ride. There's only about 2,500 feet of elevation gain, but when you're starting at almost 10,000 ft, that can really hurt. The alpine woodlands keep you company until you burst out above treeline and get to the gorgeous, million mile views. Although not that long, bring an extra Clif Bar and be prepared for the long haul. Also be prepared for rain/sleet/snow/lightning, even in August. This one rates high on the adventure scale.
