Middle Earth Outer Loop (Intermediate)

Ride: This will loop around most of the Middle Earth area on Coyote Ridge on blue trails. While not going straight through Mordor on one of our usual patrols, we may still see orcs, balrogs and dragons. We'll be going up the new Sting trail that cuts out a few miles of going out to An Unexpected Journey trail. There will be a long section up high with great views of Mt. Timp and Heber Valley. We'll end with a ride down Frodo's Playground. The ride is open to hobbits, dwarves, humans and elves.
