Coantag Ridge is a hard hike in the Kemmerer Ranger District of Bridger-Teton National Forest in Wyoming, about 6.8 miles long with a one-way elevation gain of 1,455 feet. The trail is managed by the Forest Service and has a natural surface, and it is open to both horses and bikes. The route is an out-and-back that starts at about 8,600 feet and climbs to roughly 9,900 feet. That makes it a significant day on foot, and the grade is steep enough to make it a challenge for anyone heading up. Lake Alice Campground sits about 1.6 miles away, and White Saddle is about 1.2 miles off. Bull Mountain and the Mount Isabel Cutoff Trail are both within a few miles, so the ridge fits easily into a longer trip through the area.
