Eagle Peak MTB extends above the Hammill Canyon trail for a great intermediate out-and-back ride. Connects to the Eagle Peak hiking trail at the ridge. Incredible views of the surrounding peaks at the top if you continue up to the summit. There are a few punchy climbs on the way up. Due to its altitude, this trail is often covered in snow until late June and may not be cleared of trees until July.
Access Info
Access is by crossing directly above the top of Hammill Canyon trail or by riding up Herring Creek Rd. loop. Alternate access to the top from forest route 5N74
