A nice flowing singletrack trail that follows the ridge to the east of Coal Creek. Trail starts at the intersection of Meadowlark and Thompson Ridge road and gently gains the first summit and then descends south on the ridge towards Twisp River road. Return can be the singletrack climb up More Cowbells to complete a loop. Amazing views and fast flowing trail surface with plenty of options for fun on the side. One way direction north to south
