Description
Also referred to as the Upper Loop trail, this trail can be travelled in either direction but counterclockwise is recommended to go against the flow of bikers in order to see them coming. It gets very quiet and beautiful once you get around to the back of North Floyd Hill and into the lodgepole pine area. About one-third of the way around the loop (counter clockwise), you'll come to the trail intersection with The Sluice trail, a downhill-only bike trail.
