Description

Gunsight Trail was built in June 2015 and offers up a longer descent option instead of Lupine 2 down to Slate River Road. It takes you through an extensive aspen forest with swooping switchbacks and fast, flowy turns. Start by riding Lupine Trail 1 all the way to the start of Lupine 2, but instead of taking a left, stay on the doubletrack and keep climbing. Eventually, there will be a singletrack to your left and the start of the Gunsight Trail.

Enjoy the fast and flowy downhill through pristine aspen groves. Toward the middle, you’ll find yourself on a short but pumpy climb through a few switchbacks, but the downhill soon resumes for a fun and fast descent toward the bottom. This trail can also be ridden uphill.
