      Nice riding trail to connect to Mountain View and entertaining watching people ride down downtown. Also one of the Main Trails to ride up besides Mammoth Rock Trail in Mammoth Lakes. Maintained pretty well when Mammoth Bike Park is Open.

      Just not fun unless you mostly want a workout. This is also the main way to get to Main Lodge if you do not have a lift ticket to ride the shuttle.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
