Easy blue climb, slightly exposed but chill descent. "Arguably the most technical half mile of trail building ever completed in Wyoming, it’s now possible to ascend to the summit of Roundtop on a high quality trail, suitable for hiking and mountain bikes."

      Beautiful view if the Wind River Canyon, the town of Thermopolis, and the Big Horn Mountains. The trail is a steep climb, but very rewarding descent and great beginning to the Round Top Connector / Runway / THill route.

      Steep trail but designed well with manageable grades and doable switchbacks.

      If one is afraid of heights, it can be scary—more so going up than coming down.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
