Rattler Trail Winter ride, via Corner Canyon road and Aqueduct
This ride is on exposed slopes that should melt down or compact well in winter. There are several possible variations that combine Aqueduct, Sadler, Quail, and the BST. The simple route below puts the snowiest spots on the downhill and uses the gravel road for most of the climbing. Start uphill from the parking at the bottom of the Corner Canyon road. Grunt uphill all the way to where Rattler forks away. Descend Rattler to the BST. Fork L downhill. Go L again on Aqueduct. Ride Aqueduct downhill to the CC road. However... If Quail or Sadler looks relatively snow-free and interesting, climb back to the road and head uphill. This time, drop down BST to Rattler and ride a more-difficult loop in the other direction.
