Hope so.

I’m in for some single track there if possible.

Hit the dunes across the road too.

And some folding mountain pints and grub🤟🍺

I highly recommend stopping for a bite to eat at the Folding Mtn Brewery as well. Little artsie fartsie but the food is delicious.

From what I can tell, if you go to the end of that road there is an old lease site to stage at and then there’s a trail that heads south from there and does a big loop around the south side of the mountain where it’s not so steep. And then once up on the ridge you follow the ridge up to the peak. The ridgeline trail has a very well used quad trail right to the peak of the mountain.

Dropped pin

Here’s a google pin where that trail starts from the road to the lease.

After driving in there a little bit on Thursday I would just park across the highway past just past the pump station and ride the bikes in.

The first km of that road was rough with stumps in the middle and logs in it. All the trees stained red on the west side was weird.

Nice! I have a solid group of riders, based out of edmonton, and we get out most every weekend. Always looking for fun new areas to explore close to home.
