Land Owneruinta-wasatch-cache national forest
A bit overgrown at times. It starts of pretty easy with a re-route from the construction of the Mountain Coaster as you climb up. The section from the top to the connection with Dick Bass Highway has some rocky and rooty section that is a bit difficult to negotiate, and then is really narrow as it drops you quickly out on to the Highway. But a great trail named after Ed Chauner a long time Snowbird Ski Patrol man and the original ICup Race Directory for many year.
