Stump Hollow near Bear Lake
accadacca and I just happened to be at Bear Lake on the same weekend with our families so we decided to hook up and try a new trail.
We were a little bummed at first, the trail had been beaten up by cows and/or other large split hoof mammals... and it was still quite wet with snow spots and mud.
But coming down, we could see the potential. We may try this later again in July/August.
We parked at the turnoff to Beaver Mtn resort, there's a small parking lot just off the highway. You'll cross the highway about 100 feet down and the singletrack begins there. It's not the most well defined singletrack, but there's a "Stump Hollow" sign to confirm you're in the right place. It's also right by the brown "Beaver Mountain" highway sign, shown in the photos above.
We probably made it up @ 3 miles until the mud and snow got too much. The trail is supposed to make it all the way up through the Sinks and near the Limber Pine trailhead at the pass, heading up the canyon.
We hung a left at both forks we encountered. We met some other riders who had went right on the first fork, and were coming down our way as a loop.
Here's the video:

Here's Bruce's gpx file posted on UMB, showing the complete loop.

Re: Stump Hollow near Bear Lake
I rode this last year towards the end of the year, loved it! I did have time to go all the way to the top but what I did ride was a blast coming back down.
