Easy single track (or backcountry nordic trail in winter - no dogs allowed in winter) that provides access to Flagline trail. While not technically difficult there are some punchy climbs near the end that will get your heart rate up. Can be ridden in both directions but is usually started from Dutchman Flat sno park. http://www.cogwild.com/ offers shuttle service that can drop you off here and make for a great ride

        Bowhead reach goes. Blue. Nothing particular just a couple lines that make you think.

        Turned around before junction, about 1.5 miles in from Dutchman Flat. Counted 13 trees across trail plus widespread snowbanks after about 1 mile. Mosquitoes were nuts too

        So much snow, frozen underneath but already snow. In sections probably 4 inches...
