Over the years local riders have taken advantage of the many backroads in and around Island Park. Kelson's purpose-built RAD bikes which were made to eat up paved, gravel and dirt roads alike have made ever more imaginative loops do-able.
Warm River Rails-to-Trails
Adding to the variations of Fish Creek and Warm River rides, this past weekend a few locals pioneered another loop and summit that everyone with a mountain bike or gravel bike ought to consider - the climb up Bishop Mountain.
The Fire Lookout Tower
The summit road is most easily accessible from the North Antelope Flats road on the west side off of US-20 north of Ashton. You can also access it dropping down from Harriman State Park, or from the South Antelope Flats road.
Panorama of Island Park
At the top you'll be treated by a great view of Island Park and the surrounding mountains. The cabin itself can actually be rented for overnight stays from the US Forest Service.
