Trail Overview
This is an easier single track in the Greenhorn trail system that has a nice amount of shade and less embedded rock than some of the surrounding trails. It's smooth dirt with a few easy roots across the trail, making it fast and flowy and a fun time. It meanders through a forest of pine trees on a pretty wide single track, with lots of curvy turns and a couple switchbacks. It has a couple really small stream crossings, but no major obstacles. There is a signed intersection with the Mahoney Lodgepole Connector trail in a nice spot of shade. After the intersection, it climbs up to a saddle full of wildflowers on a trail with a bit of loose rock. It's windy as it gets into the trees and has some flowy, easy switchbacks. It side hills into a burn area where there is more potential for downfall, but most of the logs get cut by the locals. There are some switchbacks in the burn area that are a little harder. It drops into a gully, elevated above a creek, and crosses the creek four times, but each crossing is pretty easy.
