Summary:
I loved this trail. It is not like the "highways" to the east of the Powderface Road. The climbs are loose, steep and long and require racer style wind and leg power. The descents were loose and rocky, with lots of bumping around. Throw in some superb views of the Rockies and this trail rates 5 out of 5. I would not recommend this trail for the novice. This trail would be appreciated by someone with a MTB racing background and a light bike. Make sure you are prepared for any problems because this trail does not appear to see a lot of traffic.

Recommended Route:
Start the trail from the Ford Creek Loop, enjoy some rough climbs and then descend onto the Ford Creek Trail. Follow the trail until you are finally spit out at the Powderface road.

Summary:
Be fit bring food and water. Plan to be out about 3- 4 hrs. See trail description. Rating is low because of difficulty and the condition of trail when we road it. DO NOT bring out anyone to this ride who is not experienced as a rider, with at least moderate fitness, and who likes to take their bike for the odd walk (at least up). Every descent was ridable for me, but there were two areas on the last third of single track that the rest of the group I was with walked.

Recommended Route:
Like I said in the description we all REALLY< REALLY wonder if this trail woundn't be better starting with the fire road. However we all felt there is no easy route.

Other recommended trails in the same area:
Almost any trail to the east of the Powderface fire road.
