This ride is on a primitive road through a wild mountainous very scenic canyon. It is an out and back ride and is good for a few hours ride on your way to or from Stanley to Ketchum. It is suitable for beginners. Expect to see Frenchman Creek, big meadows, rugged mountains, avalanche chutes, wildlife, and remote area along your ride. The ride is technically easy but may be physically moderate for some. Take your time and enjoy the views.

From Smiley Creek Lodge south of Stanley take Highway 75 approximately 2 miles southeast towards Galena Summit. Frenchman Creek road #195 will be on the right. Look for the sign. Park here or anywhere along the road and ride up the primitive road. The scenery just gets more gorgeous the farther you go up the primitive road.
A ride for beginners or others who want to see some great scenery while pedaling a bike in a remote area between Sun Valley and Stanley. Its also a great evening ride if you are camping in the area or if you only have a few hours to ride.
