Trail Overview

This challenging singletrack starts immediately from Forest Road 70027, quickly narrowing with dense brush. As you climb through aspen groves, expect occasional sharp drops toward the creek. Higher up, you'll find flat open spaces before the final ascent. The steep northern slope of Freedom Peak, crossing to Shingle Mill Peak, is a rock garden of loose stones and embedded boulders. At the highest point, you can turn off for Shingle Mill or continue down a steep, rocky descent to Big Springs Hollow. The panoramic views from the top are exceptional, making the effort entirely worthwhile. This trail is for experienced riders seeking a technical challenge and stunning scenery.
