Trail Overview

This is a 2.1-mile-long forested dirt bike trail that is really wide, more like an old road, paralleling the South Fork Swan River. The wide dirt path is covered in small, loose, and embedded rocks, and some bigger embedded rock faces. The rocks are pretty spread out and flat, so it's not difficult to ride over them, or you can pick a good line through the rocks since it's so wide. The whole route is very gradual, only gaining about 500 feet of elevation from north to south, so it remains pretty fast and easy for dirt bikes. Watch out for small root bands across the trail, huge mud puddles across the whole trail, and small stream crossings. You'll likely see other riders here on busy summer weekends, but it has great visibility since it's so wide. The trail parallels Georgia Pass the whole way, which you can take on the return route back to the start of the trail. The trail passes a few dispersed camp sites as well. This trail is closed to motorized use from 11/23 through 5/20.
