High Altitude Race Course

1 reviews

5 of 5

9 miles or so of great single track with some fireroads..screaming downhills..when you come out of the first singletrack section right after the downhill onto a fireroad there will be a gate to your right..go through it and across the Pines Campuground and look for the the start of the singletrack section..there is some constrcution in the area so you have to look for it..but it's there then follow this section alongside Hwy 244 and it'll start going up..when you get to the top you'll be at a fork in the singletrack..go right downhill..and you'll come out at a campground ..take Fireroad 5688 to the left (Upper part) not the lower road..go straight..for a mile or so then you'll come up on Bailey's Canyon..pay attention the start is a little hard to find you'll love Bailey,s Canyon.. 2 miles of screaming singletrack(going down..a real blast..the start of Bailey's is just off of Fireroad 5688..the singletrack is to the left..just before the Pasture..after you completed the downhill then take fireroad 206 to the left and start climbing for 2 miles or so..the altitude will rip your heart and lungs out if your from lower levels..like me..but it's worth it..not for beginners as some of the downhills are fast and technical in spots..

Summary:
This trail rocks..singletrack, screaming downhills, lung busting climbs..a real blast,,if your from lower altitudes this will hurt..no air up there..not for beginners as the dowhills can be a little technical and with the high speeds on the downhills.. carnage is probable if your not a good bike rider..

Recommended Route:
