Providence Canyon Trail Day 2 of exploring up Providence Canyon. Today I took the first section of singletrack (starts 1 mile up the canyon at the first wood fencing). Section 1 is .9 of a mile with a net gain of 300' Section 2 is a faint trail next to the road for .25 with a net gain of 120' Section 3 is on the other side of the road (North) .8 of a mile 400' gain. Total is pretty much 2 miles even of technical trail. If green canyon is for beginners, this is intermediate for sure. Love it. Past the end of the trail is the Quarry. I went as far up the road past the quarry as the snow would let me (it wasn't far) before turning around and blasting down the trail. T-1:40 (10mph) 16.5 miles 2150' Vert
