Mountain Biking Argentine Trail

***   Add a review

Head up the very rough and continuously steep jeep road, FSR 611. If you see the exit of the Argentine Trail on the way up, ignore it; this is where you'll come back out. After about 2 1/2 miles on FSR 611, look for a jeep road doubling back to the left. Take it up to a full switchback to the right and further up to a switchback left and finally, at the next right turn, you will see the singletrack heading west. The trail meanders on rolling terrain for a while before making a brutal climb to the top of Argentine Peak. Then its a white knuckle descent back to FSR 611 and then back to the car. For a great 15 mile route starting in town, simply follow the Ice Rink to Blue River route and, after reaching the dirt road, follow it south until a left on Royal, left on Regal and left on Coronet. Where the Blue River Trail meets the dirt road, there is a doubletrack that connects up with Coronet, but it is a vicious climb and best saved for a downhill on the return.
