Lone Rock Valley-Antelope Lake-Beardsley Grade Loop

Gravel route on , Taylorsville, California

"A long, steady climb up to Lone Rock Valley, followed by a short descent to Antelope Lake. Some rollers around the lake and a gradual descent on a fun granite road to Babcock Xing. A steeper climb up Hungry Creek and a steep, rough, fast descent down Beardsley Grade. The ride could be shortened by about 5 miles, and made much easier, by continuing down the paved Antelope Lake Rd from Babcock Xing, and eliminating the Hungry Creel climb."
