Pyramid Peak Trail 941 and Sand Creek Trail 963 Area Mountain Biking and Hiking Topo Map

Map includes: Fifes Ridge Trail 954, Pyramid Peak Trail 941, Sand Creek Trail 963, West Quartz Creek Loop Trail 952, Yellow Jacket Trail 963B Mountain Biking and Hiking Trails.

TH: From the Kaner Flat campground, ride Pyramid Peak Tr941 or FR19 to FR1906, passing the Mount Clifty Tr947 intersection on the right at 6.1mi. This section of Pyramid Peak Tr941 is popular with Orv, which sometimes leads to poor trail conditions (and hazardous riding conditions as well).

7.1mi: Go left onto South Fork Tr946 and cross FR19, then go left onto Sand Creek Tr963, paralleling FR1906. Ride Fr1906 if lost in the endless tangle of trails in this area.

8mi: Cross FR872 and pass the Yellow Jacket Tr963B intersection on the left. Option: Ride Yellow Jacket Tr963B to FR1902, an easier climb than remaining on Sand Creek Tr963. The forest service has reinforced the corners with cinder blocks, either for Orv or really fast climbers.

9.9mi: Cross a singletrack intersection at 9.3mi, crest a ridgeline at 9.5mi then cross FR862 at 9.6mi, descending to the FR1902 crossing and upper Yellow Jacket Tr963B TH.

11.5mi: After crossing FR1902 and resuming the ascent alongside Sand Creek, make a sharp left turn on the trail as it meets FR961. Ascend to the ridgeline ride summit at 12.1mi, with some steep hike-a-bike as the trail merges with and crosses FR961. Descend along the ridge to the Crow Creek campground, overlooking the steep Crow Creek drainage. The descent is technical, due to trail damage, so watch the speed.
