More Biking, Less Hiking! (eMTB ride) @ Hildebrand / Deer Creek Canyon 🔵/⚫️

🔵/⚫️ We’ll be riding ⚡eMTBs⚡ at Deer Creek Canyon, an intermediate/advanced ride area near Ken Caryl. We will start at Hildebrand Ranch, climb the Black Bear Trail, spend some time on the loops at the top of Deer Creek Canyon, then descend Plymouth Creek and take Grazing Elk back to the parking lot. There are technical sections and sections with high exposure. We will start while there is still light, but may finish up to an hour after sunset. Double check your gear, charge your lights, and come join us!

• MTB Project

Technical Difficulty: 8/10

Lights are required. Sunset is at 6:20pm. We will likely ride until almost 7:20pm, when the park closes.
