Start up the dirt road about a mile or two and you will see the trailhead for Elkhorn loop a little bit after the climb levels off and then starts downhill. Then follow the markers that say Elkhorn loop. It will kick you back out onto eht street where you started your climb. It's a fun run but not very technical. Really good views.
