6/8 Ride - Bogus Basin

This Monday we will be heading up to Bogus Basin to ride amongst the trees and enjoy some cooler temps. This would be considered an intermediate to advanced ride due to the continuous single track climb up (approx. 2.5 miles) and winding descents (some rocks).

We will start our ride at lower lodge, climbing up Deer Point Trail, looping around the backside of the mountain on Elk Meadows Trail, head to the Pioneer Lodge on Lodge Trail and finish with a fun ride down Morning Star. Morning Star has had lots of elevated additions added to it, but all are avoidable if you choose. Total ride is approx. 6 miles and should take about 2 hours.

Bring a cold beverage if you'd like to enjoy after the ride and a warm jacket as the temps do drop fast in the evening.

We will be meeting at Highlands Elementary (3434 Bogus Basin Road) at 5:45 p.m. to arrange carpooling and roll out by 6:00.
