This is a nice short ride through beautiful aspen groves perfect for beginner and intermediate riders. When you come to the beautiful overlook of Lone Cone and the western San Juan Mountains, you will have cell phone recep- tion for those most pressing Instagram posts. Follow Aspen Trail signs #125 and #125.1A to complete the loop. Best ridden counter-clockwise.

A sweet short loop to start the day after a lovely night camping. If you ride it clockwise the climbs and the descents are only average, but counter clockwise this trail sings.
