As others have said, lots of sharp rocks and it’s pretty rough. I wouldn’t call it technical as some routes are out of your control, it’s just really really rocky.

This is a very technical trail. It starts off ok, hard packed ground, but once you get near the cliff edge it is mountain lava rock-very challenging. I had to walk several sections. I rode 2 miles into this trail and turned around. I saw no other MTB and the hikers seemed perplexed I was on a bike. Good luck y'all!

Came for a vacation. Rode this trail first. Rough trail in sections, but still a great ride. Not as technical as some down in Austin. Coming from my local trails, a lot of this area is over my head.

Tough trail, mainly due to rough terrain over much of the trail.
