Tough fire rd climb to some great uncrowded flowy singletrack ending with a nice descent. Bottom portion of golden Fire Fire Rd climb is an hour plus slog with nice views. Once you reach the single track it's totally worth it. Lower eagle dh is often ridden by Moto's, gets blown out and some ruts as a result but it keeps away the overgrowth that often impacts the rest of the singletrack.

We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!

More like an XC type ride with the exception of say the last 2.5 miles. Great views. Sandy. Thank god the gate was open at the beginning of the climb. With that, we shuttled it. The dirt road itself was in great shape. No 4x4 necessary.
