Mahoney - Lodgepole Connector

This connector trail starts from Red Warrior - Lodgepole with a loose rocky downhill into some tight switchbacks that have a lot of loose rock as well. The switchbacks get wider and more sweeping as you continue to drop down the hill to the intersection with Mahoney Butte. The trail has a view of the burn area on the hillside in front of you and expansive views of these rolling green hills as it goes through beautiful meadows full of wildflowers and a couple of treed sections of shade. This is a good way to access some of the trails farther south in the trail system.
