Description

This singletrack trail runs right next to County Hwy 73 and connects to the trailhead parking lot by the Northwest Passage and Creekside Trail. The trail itself is just an option to get off of the dirt road and can be quite dusty and hot. On the bright side, you'll be treated to nice views of Byers Peak and the surrounding valley, and during the spring and early summer, the wildflowers alongside the road will be in full bloom.

While not a destination trail in and of itself, this does at least give you the option to get off the road if you are connecting to other trails in the system.
