Bolt Bypass was constructed by Powder Mountain to support the Paper Airplane MTB race series. You can use the trail to take a short cut to Dr Dozen and/ or to the top of Hidden Lake Lodge for a taco or continue down Dr. Dozen to complete the loop to a car at the bottom of Woodies World via Timberline.

An out an back using Woodies World - Paper Airplane - Bolt Bypass - Dr. Dozen - Sunrise and Picnic and back would be a fun option if you are looking for a little adventure.

There are two fun benches tucked in the trees that you may like to take your date to for a lovely view of the sunset. Just saying... Smile

Note: If you go under the road using the tunnel bridge then you are going the right direction.
