Flowy, well-built trail provides great riding with big climbs and fast descents.

As obvious from past trail reports, trail can be susceptible to large amounts of deadfall and is often one of the last trails to be cleared in the Butte area after winter. Please update trail conditions.

      		 reporter I rode from Lowlands up until the road at mile 9.4 and there were 16-17 trees down. None were huge and could be removed with a handsaw.
