Mountain Bike

This is a good beginner ride or a way to add 5 miles to Beaver Brook . This was a fun ride on an old road. The first couple miles are fairly flat and open. The trail becomes steeper and overgrown to the point you can’t ride any further. A 1/4 mi. hike takes you to a cliff overlooking Upper Bear Creek and the Evergreen area. I think the trail shines more on the way back. From the junction of Witter Gulch Road and HWY 103 ride south on Witter Gulch Road after a short distance watch for a singletrack on the right that takes you around the private property and cabin. Follow the road to the south. Courtesy of Singletracks.com

Never modify trail features. Ride trails when they're dry enough that you won't leave ruts. Speak up when you see others on the trail and always yield to hikers, horses, and others coming uphill. Always ride on the established trail.
