 | Getting there:
In Park City,
follow the signs to Park City Mountain Resort. As you see the first
parking area, turn in and park there. Look to the southwest (toward the
main resort. Pedal toward the spot where the parking lot meets the condos.
As you reach a wire gate, the gravel doubletrack that heads uphill toward
the Alpine Slide is the beginning of our ride. As you reach pavement
again, you'll pass the entry to Jenni's Trail (to your right). Look to the
left. See the log squeeze chute? That's the start of the Crescent Mine
Grade (CMG) trail. Copyright 2013 Mad Scientist Software Inc
