You pass by Conboy Lake Wildlife Refuge with many glimpses of Mt. Adams and you may see elk, deer and birds indigenous to the area. You then circle back through pine forest and back into the Trout Lake Valley. 51 miles total/2,700' elevation gain. Check-in/Registration Time: 8:00am to 11:00am

From there a 10 mile climb up to Big Tire Junction and then on to one of the downhills you will never forget, back to Trout Lake. Total of  3,800' elevation gain. Then to Heavenly Grounds Coffee Shop, on the east side of the gas station, for lunch before continuing on with the Yellow Loop to complete your 105 mile ride.
