Difficulty

I would classify any single track on a dirt bike as a 5 as it is more difficult than double track for obvious reasons. That said, this is an easier single track trail with one to two spots with exposure to steep ledges and is fairly rocky throughout with 4-5 easily traversed switchbacks.

Idaho Parks and recreation was out clearing brush today. Conditions were dry but good. Good access for dirt bike/horses/mtn bikes.

Deep Snow

Currently impassable. We rode clockwise around the loop, and encountered a few off-camber snowy sections that were passable by dragging our bikes, before being turned around by a few downed trees in some deep snow. Trail is beautiful up to that point though so it is definitely worth going.

Snow/Ice

Trail is wet and has a lot of mud holes, water crossings have pallets, I went over some and around others once you get 2-3miles in there is more and more snow. I made through and around a few snow banks but it got exhausting after a few. There is a tree fallen on the path but you can go around it via the Y before it and the trails combine back up in 20 ft. And I turned around after a few more snow drifts.

Trail was clear. Easier than the 6/10 rating in my opinion.
