Trail Overview
Trail is open from May 5th to December 30th. This single-track meanders along Spring Creek, Wyoming. I would recommend starting in Idaho. The section closest to Idaho has difficult rock sections and steeper off-camber sections. There are a few places where the trail just vanishes below you. Lots of bushwhacking through overgrown choke cherry trees and long grasses. The water crossings are easy. As you get closer to Wyoming, the trail is fun and hilly and ends at a cattle corral. You will encounter plenty of cattle, wildlife, and horse trail riders. There are few cattle gates. If the gate is closed - leave it closed. If the cattle gate is open - leave it open. There is no mobile reception. Would not recommend riding here in the heat of the summer, as this canyon can get over 100 degrees.

Difficulty
Steep off camber. Rocky tight sections. Lots of bushwhacking. Parts of the trail have been eroded. Idaho recommends staying on trail, which means finding a way to get your bikes across a trail that has disappeared, without going off trail.
