Description: This is a sweet descent down to the North Saint Vrain River, then the trail follows the river upstream a couple of miles. It is easy to follow. When you get to the bottom, take a right. (You can go left and into Button Rock Preserve if you're not biking.) There are other trails in this area and it may be posible to turn this into a loop.

It was a fun descent to the doubletrack. It is possible to turn it into loop. Just take a right once you hit the the double track. Then you follow the river upstream until you hit the lake (more of a puddle) where you keep going up. The climb to that point has loose rock but manageable. After that it is a climb from hell. I had to push my bike up, cause there was no way I could make it up. It was not fun, kept sliding down and the climb was pretty long, at least it felt like a lifetime. Once on top, you hit a fire road (4x4 road) keep taking a right and you'll end up in the parking lot. I would recommend doing it CCW and starting the climb with the fire road first and maybe it would be lot more enjoyable, but be prepared for hell of a decline!
