    Five Valleys Land Trust

Provisionally named in part as an homage to the missoula classic, secret sauce, hot sauce is the newest project of MTB Missoula created in partnership with Five Valleys Land Trust. There's plenty of opportunity to add a little extra spice along the way. The trail is public access, but the race course below is still private property. See Access Info below for the appropriate access roads. At this point in time you need to ride back up the bottom switchbacks and take the roads you came in on south to the green gate. Soon there will be options to loop the trail while remaining within year-round public access.

Access Info

NO legal access from the ski area and XC race course. Public access from the green gate on the east side of Marshall Canyon Dr, about 1 mi up from hwy 200, or a couple hundred yards downhill from where the Jumbo Saddle road comes down to Marshall Canyon Dr.
