Trail Description

A scenic and somewhat epic cycling loop between Baker and Union. It includes a lot of climbing and limited traffic, a great combination for bicycle riding. The Catherine Summit climb from Union followed by the Salt Creek climb makes for a challenging stretch. It can get fairly windy in the Medical Springs area of the route. This was the original first day route for the Elkhorn Classic Stage Race.
