The name for this trail comes from the golden light you'll experience in the fall as you ride through the tall grass near sunset. There isn't anything particularly technical about this trail, but the slopes onto and off of the meadow are a little on the steep side.

Access Info

Access is from Bebo Bluff, Easy Out and Blind Corner. The nearest parking lot is at Bebo Grove.
