Bicycling
Biking enthusiasts can explore over 20 miles of multi-use trails. Be aware, these paths vary in difficulty levels.

Mountain biking is popular here but requires caution due to steep and rugged terrains.

For beginners, the Morning Star trail offers a less challenging ride with gentle slopes and wide pathways.

The more experienced riders may prefer Shindig or Lodgepole Gulch for their steeper inclines and technical features.

Remember that all bikers must yield to hikers on shared trails; safety should always be your top priority!

Rentals are available at local shops if you don't have your own bike gear - just remember helmets are mandatory!

Night riding is also an option during summer months but ensure proper lighting equipment before venturing out after dark.

Lastly, please respect nature by staying within marked routes as off-trail cycling damages vegetation & wildlife habitats.
