BTI starts near the end of Alice in Wonderland and ends near the upper reservoir in Lithia Park. It is composed of decomposed granite and can be ridden year round and in wet weather. In the summer months the granite acts like tiny marbles making for a slick ride and can become rutted. It is a groomed flow trail with double jumps that can be rolled, tight switchbacks with berms and some small drops. It is primarily a downhill trail, but it can be ridden uphill.

Access Info

Starting in Lithia Park follow Winburn Wy to the intersection of Granite St. Continue on Granite St to the Granite St reservoir and keep left onto Glenview Dr. After the rock pit take the Ashland Loop Rd on the right for a steep climb to the Crowson Reservoir tower. Continue uphill on the paved road and when it turns to dirt the climb is only one more mile to the parking lot of Alice in Wonderland/White Rabbit Trail parking lot. This area is as far as vehicles can travel before reaching a locked Forest Service gate.

At the parking lot Alice in Wonderland takes off of the west side and follows the Ashland Loop Rd back down. Near the end of Alice in Wonderland, BTI veers to the left and the trail begins there.

      Tight berm to berm lovers dream.
      Watch out for the trail gap over the hiking trail, kinda a dangerous design if hikers aren’t paying attention.

      First time riding it today. It was in good shape w/ berms holding up well and few brake-bumps. Traction was excellent.
