The newest trail in the Tamarancho loop that replaces the steep and unpleasant fire road between Wagon Wheel and B-17. Very nice hand made singletrack with some nice flow that is way more fun than the fire road.

At the saddle, go right and up the fire road just a bit until it’s about to get steep and trail is off to the left. Very nice addition to the loop: thank you, builders!
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
