Land OwnerChelan-Douglas Land trust
This trail is mainly used by riders heading down from the summit of Twin Peaks to access Sage Hills. It starts about 75 yards up a very rocky road and traverses across a rocky slope to the east and then gains the ridge. If you're descending from the summit of Twin Peaks you can take this trail or an easier option is to continue the 75 yards to the bottom of road, turn right, take the next right after the gate and climb a short bit. This is faster and all rideable, whereas if you do the rocky traverse you'll have to do some hike-a-bike.
