Primitive Trail is an unmarked, unnumbered trail that climbs up from Trail 305 to the base of, and traverses along, the base of the Sandias for roughly a mile before swiftly returning back to Trail 305. Ridden counter clockwise, it begins with a short steep climb before a punchy traverse on narrow tread.
