This section of the foothills trail contours along the west side of the Bridger Range between Sac Pass and Ross Pass. This is an elegant piece of single track that is carved improbably into alpine faces, dipping in and out of gullies and ravines with stunning views in an unbelievable setting. Be advised this trail is not for everybody. The consistent side hill nature (often with exposure), in addition to the remoteness and technicality of this trail, requires solid bike handling skills, mental focus and a sense of adventure. The uphills are short (ridden north to south), but require some amount of hike-a-bike and the downhills can include anything from buff alpine single track to steep chunky switchbacks. Expect it all and enjoy the adventure.

      		 Very great trail considering the remoteness. Exposure, mostly good bench, skinny. Unfortunately they ran a machine and nerfed about a mile of it...

      		 One or two minor tread slumps on the steep sidehill sections. Don't recall the exact spots but around midway through.
