This joint trailhead with Cat Scratch and Fever Cat is a short climb up the Flank from alpine. Fever Cat is being reworked into a hybrid blue trail with fun and playful features to provide a low angle experience in the Alpine Trail Network. Work is being done on a volunteer basis by Howler as time permits and progressing from the top down.

Access Info

Access to the trail head can be reached by either riding up Rick's Roost (located at the top of Alpine Way) or down off the flank trail.
