This is a good day ride for those who think they might be interested in tackling the full Filthy "race" route.

Deep rooted in Orange County, VT, this route is rugged. A recommended tire size of 45mm or larger, alongside climbing gears is mandatory for a good time. 

There is a small section of single track (hike a bike for most) on Wrights Mtn, that is well worth the views. This route was built for those looking to get filthy, and doesn't showcase much pavement.
