Beautiful high alpine single track. Climbs steadily for the first 1-2 miles then flows up and down from there. Trail eventually connects to the dirt road that take you to the Two-Top summit. Generally ridden as an out and back, starting on the north end (just off the highway). There are two short off-shoots to look outs. Neither offshoot is very long but the climbs are punchy and measurably harder than the main trail, but the lookouts are pretty great. As an out and back you could turn around at any point but logical destinations would be either of the look-out points, the connection to the two-top double track or pedal all the way to two-top.

Access Info

There is a dirt road turn of on the south sign of Highway 20 pretty much right at the "welcome to MT/ID" signs.
