Trail Gnarley
Great trail. I disagree with the trail description - this is a perfect intro/beginner trail. Its straight, smooth, not to steep, and there's not "cactus everywhere". There are bushes, but spread out. Falling would be fine. You can let off the breaks and let it it flow. Mostly downhill west to east.
