    Drop

Just a little tight turned ride up the hillside, really not much more difficult than the standard trail. The finish is a bit steep. This path is more popular than staying on the intermediate Main Loop because the Main Loop turns a bit to an old road and is a straight line almost to the finish. If you continue to hug the hill, there are 3 big steps you drop down.
