The Bursage Loop is a short loop that is fairly technical. This area is dominated by Volcanic rock that is very sharp. This trail is super tight and techy on the SW leg and rocky but wider with a much steeper washed out section on the NE leg. I like to climb up the SW side and then either ride the Center trail back or back on this same trail. You are at higher altitude and their is a lot of climbing in the Anthem trails so it's moderately strenuous.
