This loop is a multi-use groomed trail maintained by the DART group out of Dubois, WY. Lots of Snowshoers, Nordic Skiers. When the loops are groomed and set up they are a blast to ride on a fat bike. The views are astounding Off of this loop is a small side trail leading to an overlook of the Wind River Valley. There are times when snowmobiles will cross this track but you will certainly hear them coming.
