Round Valley Mountain Bike Ride

Weather: Sunny, High 60's - Absolute Perfection

I started at my home in Prospector (great area to buy homes or real estate) but you might want to drive out to the Quinn's Junction sports complex area and start there.

Here is a link for the Round Valley Trail Map, on the Mountain Trails website: http://mountaintrails.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Quicklook-Roundvalley.jpg

Heres the ride you might want to try. Start on the trail that is right behind the Indoor Ice Arena, its an easy green rated trail. Then once heading up, take RAMBLER. rambler is a nice, easy, winding trail across the hillside, and heads up the hill. Stay on Rambler. Take rambler to the top of the hill. Then take Rambler down, which is a fun twisting and turning signletrack. Rambler will cross over Round Valley Express at the north end of the valley, then head back uphill, and take the trail heading South, called La Dea Duh, or Rademan Ridge (not sure at that point), but when you do dee the sign, take Rademan Ridge, and then look for Cammy's Trail. Once on Cammy's trail, go right on Round Valley Express, then after heading downhill a little, take a left at Matts Flat, then a right on Backslide. Backslie will be a little tough on the uphill, but is good. Backslide heads up to the top, then right back down the other side, which then at the bottom, it turns into Nowhere Elks. Nowhere Elks is a good uphill route, and then back down the other side which leads back over to the top point rambler again. Head back down Rambler, then down High Side, then down Kari's and your back where you started.

This ride might take about an hour, give or take a few minutes based on how many rides you have done this season. Its a good ride, fun enough, but not too tough.

As always, feel free to call us with questions, and we'll give you some ideas on where to go.
