Bear Creek Trail

The 4.2 miles roll continuously through 4 distinct climbs, adding up to 902 ft of gain without one dominant ascent. The main climb starts around mile 2.8 and runs 1.3 miles, gaining 347 ft at an average 5.1%. You finish 433 ft above the start, so the return trip runs mostly downhill.

The route runs between Corwina Park and Rutabaga Ride Trailhead, roughly 0.13 miles apart. Marked facilities along the route include restrooms.
