The Cement Mountain Trail starts from the summit of 12,201′ Cement Mountain. While the trail is difficult to follow at first, once it’s found the trail is quite distinct- almost a doubletrack by the bottom, in fact. I rode this trail for the first time a few years ago and thought it was OK- but for whatever reason I really liked this trail a lot this time around. If nothing else, how many rides start at the summit of a 12,000′ peak? I’ve hike-a-biked to the summit from the highpoint of the Julie Andrews trail as well as the top of the Roaring Judy trail- either way it’s a long hike. This summer may be the last to legally ride this trail, as the new Forest Service Management Plan will “decommission” this trail soon. So if you’re looking for something new, check it out soon!

Stunning photos, breathtaking video rides, and absolutely gripping posts. I love reading your accounts – both of you. Greetings from Poland.
Thanks Michal, that means a lot to us!
