Trail bed is covered deep snow. Snow is unpacked and not rideable.

Ahh…sweet, sweet piney woods. After Eastside trail, Sinker Creek is the second best trail in the Shafer Butte trail system, which navigates the forested ridges above Boise. It’s good in either direction. This mostly smooth singletrack never has much traffic, but on weekends you may encounter the occasional biker or hiker.
