Land OwnerUSFS
West Pine Creek trail was rebuilt after a major forest fire decimated the original trail about 15 years ago. The new trail is much more doable than the original. It is still plenty steep in sections but no hike-a-bike if you've been eating your Wheaties.
The first mile or so switchbacks through the old burn, climbing steadily. Shortly after leaving the burned forest for meadows, the pitch eases and the trail follows the ridge line with the views improving as the elevation increases. At about the four-mile mark, the trail reenters the forest, traversing both green and burnt sections. The upper 1.5 miles are pretty rocky but fortunately not as steep, allowing you to hone your technical skills without chunking a lung.
The trail ends where it intersects with the North Dry Divide #135 trail. You can either turn and reap your reward by descending the way you came, or ride down North Dry Divide #135. Both descents are stupid fun.

3.5 stars. I think this and North Dry are both worth doing as “out and backs”, not combined into a loop or anything. The lowest 3 miles of each are the best parts by far. Good camping at either trailhead.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
