A rolling trail that skis well in both directions. Part of the designated dog route and dogs are allowed off leash. When combined with Raven Ramble (also part of the dog route) it makes a nice loop that skis well in both directions.

Please note, this is a multi-use trail that is shared with fat bikes.
