As far as I'm concerned Solitude can't be beat for awesome singletrack with such great scenery in the Wasatch front. Granted, I haven't ridden every trail there is to ride up here yet, but really does it get much better than Solitude? It's not a killer climb, the downhills are fun and swoopy and rocky, you get to see moose, and [go figure] the SINGLETRACK is actually singletrack, not a two lane highway!
thanks for taking those pics. I was having too much fun last time to take many :2thumbs:
Did you guys ride the "upper" loop by Solitude Lake? There were tons of trees down a few weeks ago so I'd use the term "ride" pretty loosely, but if you go up to the lake and hang a left on that trail, there is some fun technical singletrack that leads back down to the Kruz'r intersection. If you haven't done that one yet, giver a try!
Here's a few boring pictures from our last ride: |

We rode the main race loop, I have never been on the upper loop but I definately wan't to try that soon. I can't get enough of the place so any extra will be great. :2thumbs: |

Tell me you rode the Kruz'r trail while you were there too..! That is one fun piece of singletrack, especially when followed by Serenity. When you get to the end of Kruz'r you just follow the same pavement you took to Serenity.
Now I'm jonesin' for it again too :lol8: :rockon: :2thumbs: :five: |
