Trailforks says e bikes allowed. BUT.. no trails to or from it are allowed. Do they make hover e bikes now to get to the trail?
How does one e bike this trail without pissing off the e bike haters?

Fun trail! Ride it west to east as others have said. The descent is fast and narrow with some tight banked corners 🤟🏼

West-to-east is super fun. East-to-west I have never done, since you're asking for a head-on collision on a popular day. A very popular trail that is built with a primary direction in mind due to the built-up east-end descent, but is officially bi-directional. I strongly recommend that you don't be a salmon, since there are many different options to get back to Canmore from the east end.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
