Boardman Spring Trail is a short, steep mountain biking route in Utah's Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, within the Pleasant Grove Ranger District. It's a one-way climb of about 150 feet from a low point of 7,084 feet to a high point of 7,253 feet, and the round trip is about 0.94 miles. The trail is rated expert, and the Forest Service manages the land. The route is described as almost impossible to pass, with fallen trees and bush making the way through difficult. That makes it a technical ride rather than a simple climb, so riders should come prepared for a route that demands careful handling. Summer is the most comfortable time to go. Typical averages from a nearby weather station at Sundance show July highs around 81°F and lows near 58°F, while winter highs stay near freezing. Boardman Spring, a hike about 0.3 miles away, and Slate Canyon Trail, about half a mile off, are the closest neighbors. Climbers can head to The Cooler, about 2.9 miles away, and Rock Canyon campground sits about 3.1 miles out.
