MOUNTAIN BIKING: Elk Chase (surveyor Park Tr)

← WY BULL LAKE CREEK LENORE WY Single Tracks →

Description

This trail used to be part of the White Pine downhill mountain biking trails. You will see blue diamonds posted throughout the trail. It is an old pack trail, it starts out going gradual uphill through trees into a large park, the trail continues to go left (east) towards the wilderness boundary, you want to look for the fence post and turn right (south), the trail is overgrown and hard to see for a couple hundred yards, once you crest the park a trail will be evident for another couple hundred feet. Then it dies out through the meadow and across the stream, once you get to the stream and into the trees the trail is very evident all the way down. The slope increases, you pass an extremely large evergreen (Queen Tree!) and will get to a big sagebrush ridge. It is steep and curvy, you will come out on some flats behind the White Pine Condo's, follow the trail and you will come out in between the condo's and the maintenance shop.
