We were told by a guy working there that they do have plans to extend up to the top. I think he said they were thinking another 7 - 10 miles.

AF is great. Riding there is as much about knowing where not to go as it is knowing where to go. Though, that is vastly easier now in the Trailforks age. You can do some epic point-to-point rides from PC or SLC via those trails. This was a fun adventure: https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...-City-to-Provo
Was Tibble still closed?
I took my son on a 4x4 adventure up to the end of FR322 last summer. That whole basin has HUGE potential.Last edited by Dantheman; 06-22-2017 at 01:09 PM.

Contrary to popular belief, there's still single track to be had in Park City.

Crest is riding nicely. 3 snow patches and 2 downed trees on little water if you go out millcreek. Get it before the road opens!

That road you cross when you're getting close to the switchbacks near the top connects to the shadow lake road near the top of the shadow lake singletrack.

Thanks. I didn't realize that was the same road. I've only been riding up there since last year so I'm still figuring shit out.

To be clear, it connects to, but is not, the SL road. There's not much reason to go that way most of the time, but we had topped out the SL singletrack and rather than just turning around thought we'd explore a little bit. It's pretty obvious that virtually no one travels through there.

If you got the time this week, the trails in upper millcreek are riding great, although there is some deadfall on the trails. It was great being up there yesterday afternoon and seeing so little people out there. rode up from birch hollow to the crest and then back down, only saw two other bikers from the start of my ride until I got back down to the bottom of great western. I've been riding the crest for 20 years and i've never not seen people on it so it felt really special. that route was also an ass kicker for this fat kid clocking in at ~26 miles and 4400 vert, but I guess I'm in bike shape now.
the millcreek gate opens this saturday.
Also, saw the dog lake to Deso connector trail. that thing will be fun once completed

Rode Crest for the first time last night. So much fun, such great views. Saw only 3 other people from top of Great Western to the road. That part of the trail was my favorite...probably not quite as fast once the gate opens I've got to imagine

rode some old school PC trails yesterday with my old man who is 68 years old and still going strong. We were going to do spin cycle, but he wasn't feeling the climb out so we turned around at the end of outlook and then I added like 10 more miles of singletrack like a jackass, but damn it had been awhile since I rode a bunch of those trails around solomere and I think we both were stoked on it! Turned out being his most miles in a single ride this year at just under 16 miles total.
I really have to stop doing that to people, the old "let's just check out this trail, I don't think it'll be much more distance/climbing." At least my wife is used to it now. Not as cool when its with your dad who had open heart surgery a few years back though.

For those of you not on facebook, PSA to be careful about where you park if you are riding the Crest out Millcreek. They have towed cars parked at Dan's and now UTA is threatening to tow cars parked at the 3900 S park and ride.

Makes sense to me. That UTA lot is packed, I'd be pissed if I was about to take a bus and couldn't park there. Then again, I've never thought of this until this thread, I've always parked there without thinking it through. Mainly because Big Rack Shuttles meets there. Dans seems like there is plenty of room though, but it's private property so oh well. Parking at Einstein's seems like a dick move, that place is small and has a lot of traffic.
