Trail Overview

Inner Alder Loop is a short but adventurous trail within the Elbe Hills Trail System. Access begins off the 9 Road, right next to the Upper Campground. Right away, you’ll climb a steep hill. Once at the top, you can continue along the loop or branch off onto Alder Loop Trail. Along the way, expect muddy stretches, scattered rocks, and plenty of roots to keep things interesting.

First time out on this trail with my GX. 3 inch lift on 33s with plenty of 4 Low and ATRAC. Recent rains have made certain spots slick. You'll have to be careful about picking lines and the use of momentum since there's a few large roots and rocks. Nothing in photos seem to capture reality. The log shown in the picture was probably 8-10inches in diameter, for reference. Overall, challenging and fun for a wheeling newbie like me!
