This trail connects Tronsen Ridge Trail to the Red Hill Loop near the Mission Ridge trailhead. Epic views of Mission Ridge, excellent descending, some steep ups and downs but definitely worth working your way to this backcountry gem. Thanks to motos for working to keep these trails clear. (Closed to motorized use October 15 through June 15)
