This is a basic "forward" outer loop at Racker that avoids the more technical trails. Although *less* rocky, you will want to ride on a dry day so the rock gardens are more manageable. Don't let the short mileage mislead you, the climbing and technical riding will make it feel like a longer ride.
Start/End is parking on Evergreen at the intersection of Racker.
