Flying Dog Trail
The Flying Dog trail arcs between the middle of the Jeremy 24-7 to Glenwild connector, and the top of the Cobblestone Loop. You need to climb another trail to get to it. This is one of the best trails in the area. The Flying Dog trail is very well-planned and expertly constructed. Early-intermediate riders will love this trail, but experts will also. Only the strongest beginners should consider it, because of the length. Other options include a 16-mile moderate ride, and a tough 23-mile grinfest with 3000 feet of climbing. You can add a dip down the Bobs Basin DH trails while you're passing by. |

Getting there, Jeremy Ranch 24-7:
Just after Parley's Summit, take the Jeremy
Ranch exit and turn north (left) under the freeway. Turn left at the first
stop sign, then take the next right (Jeremy Ranch Drive). Continue until
the road turns sharply around to the right, where you'll see the dirt
East
Canyon Road branching off to the left. Park and climb the ST on the east
side of the road (the direction your car was facing as you came around
the
paved turn).
Glenwild: At the I-80 Park City exit, go north (left from the exit if you're coming from SLC) to the frontage road. Turn right. About 1/4 mile later at the second road on your left, turn left. Find the trail parking area just before the northbound road crosses the creek. (You'll see the trail map kiosk and bathroom). GPS N 40° 43.662' W 111° 32.051'. Head up the road to start your ride. Just past the bridge, turn left on singletrack and you're on the Stealth Trail. |
