      Nice ride, a little over grown but over all nice ride. Best ridden out and back in my opinion

      This trail is best and gets the most traffic near the Saffell Canyon trailhead on the Southwest. Out in the meadow that completes the loop it gets very little traffic, is often overgrown, and can be nearly invisible.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
