Old double track with a fair number of loose rocks. Not used much any more. Ripped Nipple to El Dorado is a much better route.

      		 Very rough. Trail hasn’t been maintained. A lot of the trail has been washed out exposing lots of roots and rocks. Not very enjoyable.

      		 Hiked up, steady climb, loose rocks. Not the prettiest of trails but leads to others that are better
