      Regarding the below comment-its probably doable on a gravel bike but there'd be some really steep sketchy descents. Definitely a step up in difficulty vs the Oaks Trail

      Is this a mountain bike trail or would a gravel bike be enough for it?

      Good fire trail - be aware of the two creek crossings! Even with no rain for a while, still deep enough to soak your feet.
      Climb in the end is a killer!

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
