Description: Super easy singletrack with a couple of very short challenging sections. Very possibly the best beginner's trail on the Front Range and just a lovely little park. Going clockwise on the Shadow Pine loop, the downhill section just seems to feel longer than what you earned on your climb. Adrenaline junkies should go past the first entrance and then go past the second entrance and then just keep driving until you find a different ride.

SUPER EASY is true. This trail is so easy, it's almost laughable.

Great beginner's trail. I like the fact the loops are short – easy singletrack at 8000+ ft is no joke. The winding section through the trees is great, and it smelled rather fresh. I was here on a Sunday morning around 8:00 and there was plenty of walker/dog traffic. It would be a fun trail to do laps on during the week. Recommended if you're new to the sport or area.

I parked at the first entrance and rode up the 'Junction House' connector to the main 'Shadow Pine' loop, highly recommend doing this to add 1mi to the ride. This trail was fast and fun, only 2 minor technical sections but the rest is all beginner stuff, really fun though. I rode the loop in one direction and then back around the other direction. I wish it was 20mi long instead of 3, fun stuff but just enough to get me warmed up to go ride some more over at Meyers Ranch just down the road about 6mi.

This is a great warm up to all the rides in Evergreen and a good trail to bring your family on. Nice and smooth with a few technical spots.
