The Probation - Burgh loop is a hidden gem. Most fun way to ride is to descend Probation and climb Burgh. Climb is steep in sections but it's over before you know it. This trail is one of the least ridden and most overlooked in the Valley. Give it a shot Wildlife regularly are spotted here.

      Maybe this trail has changed since the above comment was posted? Not sure, but if you can climb Bovine, you won't have any problems with this. It's really not that bad.

      This is not an easy climb. I assume the most common route is down Prohibition and back up Burg. I would rate it as most difficult. If you're building a route in this area and are with intermediate riders, I would consider skipping the additional loop of Prohibition and Burg. If you're strong and like some steep down+up, then by all means.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
