Description: Deep Step is a 5 mile trail that circles Deepstep Rd and also serves as a way to connect the northern loops of Tower and Big Rock without having to ride 3 miles of pavement. Around the halfway point a connector trail branches off and heads towards FS 661. Deep Step has the great flow that everyone has become accustomed to at FATS and it won't let you down. Smooth, flowy, fast, and easy as pie but VERY fun even for an advanced rider. Don't miss out on this one.

Just got home from riding this trail and I'm beat:) This is the first of the F.A.T.S. trail I've ridden and I just gotta say what a blast it was!!! I must admit to coming outta the saddle a few times on some of the climbs but that's mostly due to poor form and the fact that I'm a noob:) I'm so stoked to have such a great trail system so close to home!!! I will be back soon to ride the other loops!

I have a love/hate relationship with Deep Step. Love it when it is my first loop[ at FATS, hate it (as I am sucking wind) when I have done a few other loops first. Fun trail, fast decents with som steep up hill sections. believe it flows better going counter clockwise.

IMO, the most technically challenging trail in the FATS system, but that's not really saying a lot. Still, Deep step had more roots and rocks than I remember on any of the other loops. It's not much of an aerobic challenge unless you are pinning it the whole way around but there are a few short climbs thrown in for good measure. This is the "link" trail between the southern trail and the northern trails of Big Rock and Tower in case you decide to park in the southern parking lot. Keep an eye out for on-comming riders as this trail seems to get ridden in both directions pretty frequently. Great flow much like the other trails at FATS. Enjoy.
