Trail Overview
Ross Pass is a 2.5-mile-long single track through the Gallatin National Forest. From the west end, it drops down from the summit of Ross Pass and the intersection with the Bridger Foothills, Bridger Ridge, and Upper Brackett Creek single tracks. It's a gradual descent the whole way, dropping 1,000 feet elevation. It's a flowy and smooth descent, with only a few roots, but hardly any rock. It has easy gradual corners and smooth easy switchbacks. It goes through a really pretty area of fir trees, hops bushes, teasels, wild lupins, and great views looking down the valley along the South Fork Brackett Creek. It ends at a small dirt parking area at the Ross Pass Trailhead. This trail is open 6/16 - 10/14 for motorized use.
