What's the best way to get to Holts Summit from the N Jeff trailhead? Isn't there a spur now from the trail? Anyone ridden it, know how far it is, terrain, etc?
Thanks!

Unless you have a rich aunt who is going to leave you some money why fight the hugh hill to get to Holt Summit? Nothing there. Stay in Hartsburg or Jeff City.

The spur is just east of the North Jefferson trailhead right after you pass under Highway 54. It's a short segment that connects you to South Summit Drive that goes over Highway 54 up the hill and on into Holts Summit. You can see the hill from the trail head. The bike path accross the Missouri River bridge may be closed due to the work being done on the new bike path extension to the bridge so if you go that route you may want to call for a ride into Jefferson City or stay in Hartsburg which is only 10 miles west of North Jefferson.

Well if for one thing, it is fun riding back down the next morning. The last time we stayed at a motel in Holts Summit, I averaged 47 MPH untill I got to the trail.

How we got there from the trail? We just climbed up the concrete bank under the overpass with the loaded biked (one a recumbent), and lifted them over the gaurd rail. Then road up on the wide shoulder.
