This trail has moderate grades and many switchbacks gaining 3400 feet to the old Estes Butte fire lookout site. At the lookout site it becomes the Old Gib Trail #1528 leading to an eventual junction with the Carne Mountain Trail #1508. However, the Old Gib Trail is seldom maintained and hard to find in places. There is no water on the route once the snow has melted.

 Not only is this not 'biking primary', not sure it gets any bike use at all. I have ridden in this area quite a bit, yet never heard of anyone riding this trail. Not surprising given that it has 4K of climbing in 2.8 miles, which implies more than a blue rating. Some very questionable QC on this entry.
