The Grouse Mountain Trail was constructed by the City of Buffalo through an agreement with the Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service. It is a great place for those seeking challenging hills, deep creek crossings and amazing vistas. The trail was designed for mountain biking with other non-motorized uses in mind. This trail connects the City of Buffalo's trail system to the Bighorn National Forest's trail system. Those using the trail will find themselves in open meadows among flower covered slopes, rustling aspen groves and deep pine and spruce forests. Due to steep grades high speeds can result, please remember that others may also be on the trail so use caution and plan accordingly. source: fs.usda.gov
I love this trail, it's where I learned to ride singletrack. It's not super technical but it's also probably not for beginners either. There are some steep downhills in sections where you can really gain speed. And tight switchbacks where a mistake could be bad. If your new just make sure your brakes are working properly, and have appropriate safety gear.
