Trail Overview
Middle Fork–South Fork 1 (7199) is a short connector in the Smoky Mountains, 20 minutes west of Ketchum, Idaho. The trail is 2 miles long, beginning at the junction of Middle Fork Warm Springs and Warm Springs Driveway, heading east to Forest Service Road 7302. When ridden west to east, it descends about 600 feet. The route starts atop an open ridgeline with great view,s running across grassy fields and then dropping down a few steeper gravel hills. Surface conditions are mostly hard-packed dirt with patches of golf ball–sized rock at higher elevations. Some minor plant overgrowth narrows the track in spots, but obstacles are limited. The lower section passes through burned woods before reaching the next trail intersection.
