About this trail
In Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, Nevada, Hager 6 (USFS trail 17864) covers 0.7 mi of National Forest System trail. The figures here are pulled from the official US Forest Service trail data for Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, covering the trail's mileage, tread, grade band, and the bike and e-bike uses the agency lists as designated. Underfoot, the trail is recorded as native material. Its grade-based difficulty is Intermediate (grade band +8-10%) — a moderate steepness profile derived from USFS slope data, not a technical mountain-bike rating.

On the electric side, Class 1, Class 2, Class 3 e-bikes are also designated — Class 1 being pedal-assist only, Classes 2 and 3 adding a throttle and higher assisted speed. The route is mapped as USFS Trail Class 1 on the agency's 1-to-5 development scale, where 1 is the most primitive, minimally maintained tread and 5 is the most developed. Because conditions, closures, and local orders change between data refreshes, confirm the current status with the managing ranger district before you ride.
