This was more than likely an old dirt bike track, and due to this it has a few "hike bike sections." However, it's still a very fun single track. You will see a lot of branching out trails, so pay attention to the map as you navigate, unless you want to go exploring. Certain spots on the trail will give very nice views of the city. This trail is currently under review to try and designate the best route. It has been set up to help map out other trails, however as it stands, it's still rideable and a lot of fun.

      I’m not sure about the end sections, but the middle is built through a series of washes and as a result is all washed out. The middle is no longer a trail.

      I built “Lost Child” with a friend. We never had real name for the trails. Glad somebody put them on Trail Forks. They were built for mountain biking. There are a couple hike-a-bike sections but they couldn’t be avoided. There are branching trails because we planned a just a couple miles for practice when we couldn’t drive across town to ride, then over the years we built a little more and a little more. We also learned trail design as we went. Lost Child has a few black diamond sections and a ton of climbing. Anyone can feel free to add, fix, block-off or rename anything on Sunrise Mountain as far as I’m concerned.

      This was a fairly hard trail. I climbed it up and over the switch backs and it was difficult. It even going down it would be very technical. I think it should be rated Black Diamond personally.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
