Antelope is a fun trail both climbing and descending. This trail is mostly used as an alternative to climbing or descending the very technical Lower Bitterbrush trail and can be used to access the upper parts of Hall ranch. Expect fun twisty singletrack, tacky red dirt, and a few small, technical rock features. Watch your speed on the descent as most of the corners are blind and this is a multi-directional trail

Disclaimer

The trailhead on Apple Valley road is very small - expect to park elsewhere if riding on Weekends. Lyons has ample parking and the ride from Lyons to the Trailhead is a nice warmup.
