Trail Overview
This is a 2-mile single track in the Nelson OHV area that parallels the powerline road. It starts on the access road south of the staging area near the powerlines, then goes south into the hills and circles around back to the road. It goes along a spine on a ridgeline, with a few really spicy straight-up climbs that are loose and steep with embedded rock faces. It's flowy in between the harder spots, and sections of it look narrow and less ridden. There are fantastic views of the Nelson Hills as you ride along the spine. The trail has tons of fun and fast sections and goes up and over all the hills. There's some exposure at the top of each climb and the hills get pretty high up. It's really scenic with multi-colored red and grey dirt. After going along the spine above the washes, it dumps into a wash near the power lines again. The southern section of the trail is a wide wash with tight turns and dirt walls.

Difficulty
