West Bear 932

Trail Overview

This is a difficult single track through the Rio Grande National Forest that gains 2,000 feet of elevation from south to north. The south end starts in a grassy meadow at 9,000 feet, and heads into the trees. It crosses a tiny stream crossing, then gets pretty rocky right away as it starts climbing up the mountain. It's a wide path with a surface of loose dirt covered in loose rocks and, as it climbs steeply, making it pretty difficult. You really have to put weight on the pegs to keep traction on the climb. The entire 4 miles are a constant climb up, with some sections completely covered in softball-sized rocks, with small ledges. It goes through a gate at the top of the climb. You have to do some tight maneuvering through the trees, but there are also fast sections through meadows for some relief from the rocks. It widens up to a road at the north end before ending on Viers Creek Road.
