The Yellow Loop leaves Ragnar Village with Green and Red and cuts through the heart of the camping area under a canopy of huge oaks. At a quarter-mile, Green splits off right and you continue up a stout single track climb. The pitch is gradual at first as you work your way through the tree canopy but near mile one, the tough get going and the rest of us start power hiking, as the next half mile is pretty steep. Just past mile one comes your sweet relief. The Red Loop soldiers on up the road while you bank right onto a fast single-track that plunges you back down into the tree cover. Run with care as there are some short technical sections. After the descent there is a short steep climb up a near vertical wall which gains an open ridgeline with tremendous views of the valley below. The next mile is a fast and furious single-track decent back to the valley floor where you cross the outbound Green Loop and then turn right to join the end of the Green Loop back to Ragnar Village.
