The Tom Blake trail is a great intermediate singletrack that can be ridden from either direction. This trail has moderate usage so be aware of oncoming foot and bike traffic. The Blake trail is the most buttery smooth trail in the Roaring Fork Valley, and shaded in deep aspen groves the entire way for its 2+ miles.
From east to west, start at the trailhead parking lot off of Owl Creek Rd across from the Town of Snowmass shop.
From west to east, start at the end of the Snowmass Mall. The Tom Blake shares pavement in two spots. If you start from rom the Mall you'll share pavement quickly. Take a right and head uphill for a few hundred yards. Look for a sign on Hidden Ln. go left for 100 yards and the singletrack begins here.
Once on dirt for approx 1 mile you'll come to pavement again, take a left go approx 300 yds take a right on East Ridge Ln. Pick up singletrack at the end of this road
This area has a seasonal wildlife closure from April 25 – June 21
