Recommended Route: Good description to find it, but is more complicated, with potential to get lost. There is a big river crossing 2/3 of the way through, which is brutal in the spring when water is high. Best bet, go to White Pine Touring (park city) and ask the shop boys for more detailed directions. It's worth your while...

technical, and fast sections. Not for the occational rider. NO people, beautiful area. Leave yourself 2-3 hours for this sweet ride at a good clip. No shuttle required,(pure loop). Have cold beer ready at the end. |
