Description
The Pipeline Trail can be started either from the Outlook to Pipeline Connector or can be picked up from just in front of the St Regis Hotel (where the Deer Hollow ski run goes under the road tunnel). The trail surface is smooth packed dirt and winds back and forth across multiple ski runs. It goes through several stands of dense evergreens, aspens, and other scrubby trees with minor views up and down valley. The trail ends by following the Keetley ski run down, stopping at the Mountaineer Express chairlift. Note: bikes are allowed on this trail.
