A fun rip downhill from Mount Spokane's peak. The upper section down to the trail head, Saddle Junction, is rough and rugged.

      So dope - the upper 3rd is light black rocky tech, nothing steep. The middle Thurs where it crosses kit Carson lookout road and trail 110 split off to the lower lot Carson lookout road and trail 100 is very much just a light blue trail - the lower third below that goes back to black tech trail but rooty tech vs rocky tech and so dreamy in the darker forest! A hoot of a ride - stoked on it!

      Great trail with hero dirt. There’s a tree down across the trail after the first road crossing down a bit.

      Might be my favorite trail I've ridden! It's gorgeous up at the top, with more technical rock gardens, which open up into a super flowy section. The trail then smooths out and speeds up, then gets really steep at the bottom, with a lot of braking ruts, and some tight sections through the trees. Super fun trail all along with some good variety!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
