The Bearhoti Lite route (Bear Creek, and P2) is the one of the most popular routes in the Mulberry Gap area! Today’s ride has two options: SHUTTLE or NO SHUTTLE Riders wanting to roll out from Mulberry Gap will check in at the office at 11am, and roll out with Corey around 11:15. Rider who would like to shuttle will check in around 11:45am to hop on the noon shuttle.
