This is a great family friendly route that is a good way to introduce your kids or new rider to the fun of the Hurricane Cliffs Trail system. Starting from the North it takes you up Dead Ringer which undulates with mostly smooth singletrack. It takes you to the top of the easier parts of JEM and then the long flowing downhill of JEM takes you back to the car.
