For the road climbers out there. An opportunity to bypass the steep, washed out and cobbled sections of the main access road. This short trail will take you over to a spur road that continues on past the Hammerfest DH, Dead Horses and Giddy-up trails. Also past the entrance to Daryl's trail and the start of Receding Treeline.
Not your shortest way to the powerlines but more fun then the Classic Road Climb. A good E/W connector. Use as a mid-level option for riding multiple loops especially as it now connects to the new Barefoot climbing trail.
