Description

This newly constructed trail was built as a partnership between the USFS and the Telluride Mountain Club. It offers beautiful views, enjoyable trail grades and the ability to loop with additional trails in the area. Please be cautious with two way traffic on this trail as there are a couple spots where downhill bike traffic can be traveling swiftly.
