Sellers is a short, moderate mountain biking route in northern Minnesota, about 3.5 miles from the town of Beaver Bay. The climb is an out-and-back of roughly 1.4 miles, with a high point of 1,042 feet and a low of 997 feet. The route starts and ends at the high point, and the steepest stretch comes early, around 0.23 miles in, with a grade of about 5%. Summer is the most comfortable time to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station run to highs in the mid-70s in July, with lows in the mid-50s. That station sits about 358 feet higher than the route, so temperatures on the trail run a little warmer. Several other mountain biking spots sit close by. Fade to Blue is just 0.1 mile away, and Rufus and Black Sands are within about a mile. For paddling, the Beaver River is about 3.4 miles off.
