Crane Lake Loop & Drop Off Trail--Mountain Bike Intermediate

I am heading up to the Grand Mesa for cooler temperatures and to feed the mosquitos. I am riding the Crane Lake Trail and Loop back on the end of Mesa Top Trail, about 7.5 miles. Then, if I feel like it, ride out the Drop Off Trail and loop back on Flowing Park Trail, about 7 miles. Leaving from the Flowing Park Trailhead, next to Flowing Park Reservoir, at the end of Flowing Park Rd. (FS109). https://www.mtbproject.com/trail/7053803/crane-lake-trail
For those that want to carpool, meet in Palisade on Wine Valley Rd., just past the Palisade Peach Shack at 8am. Mention in the comments if you plan to carpool.
