There are two-approx 40 mile loops here that area groomed with lots of other non groomed trails. This trail is a heavily used MULTIPLE USE TRAIL. Dog Sledders, Cross Country Skiers & Snowmobilers being the main users. Be curtious! Windy Gap to Gold Run any off trail riding between these two points be prepared for Avalanches. The rest of the areas are lots of meadows to play in and lots of off trail and road riding.
