Trail Overview

Beckler Peak starts as a beautiful, well-groomed trail with minimal potholes. After about a mile when you begin to go up in elevation, there are ruts throughout the road from the snowmelt. It is easy enough to find a line, but you do have to switch from side to side frequently. There are a few sections of potholes, but nothing too bad. Look for lots and lots of waterfalls on the left. This trail during spring/summer is heavily overgrown with lush foliage, so expect some pinstripes in spots. There also is not much of a view as a result of the thickness of the forest.
