Jul 01, 2026 Cutthroat Switchbacks Trail Report

There’s a sign towards the beginning of the trail which to me read as a warning that sufferin succotash is closed so there’s no loop to be made from cutthroat, but some may read it as cutthroat being closed. I wanted the extra vert and mileage so decided to ride it out and back, at 1.6 miles there’s a road crossing where you have to go right, down the road about 200 yards then you can pick out the trail on the left, shortly after that the trail is pretty demolished for about 50 feet where you have to walk bike, after that the trail is still very ideal except for two downed trees towards the top. Great climb and downhill, bluebells going off.
