Buttercup Loop on Blue Mountain
Made this great loop around the lower reaches of Blue Mountain for a great mountain bike ride that featured 2 climbs and a good portion of single track. A big plus was that hardly anyone else was out on the trails…I might be a bit greedy on that one. [sgpx gpx=”/wp-content/uploads/gpx/Buttercup Loop.gpx”]
Hidden Treasure/MoZ Downhill
Starting at the Crazy Canyon, I made it to the top of trail 301.2, and started a bomb downhill that ended in Missoula.

Mill Creek Downhill

McClain Creek Downhill
It took 48 minutes to gain the 1000 vertical feet and 3 miles distance, and just over 12 minutes to bomb all the way down.
