A few areas are a little overgrown but still easy to navigate. Chunky and loose on the climbs.

      The mentioned slab section clockwise is totally worth it.

      Definitely black, limited hike a bike. Most fun had on trails in Silver City area yet

      Agree with black difficulty. I rode it clockwise. Definitely needs trail maintenance after the monsoon. Overgrown on the backside. Did a lot of walking in that backside…real steep and technical. Some maintenance would go a long way in making this trail more rideable and enjoyable. Just doesn’t look like it gets ridden that much.

      Fun trail with some great views. Definitely more of a black trail then blue. Steep, rocky, loose climb if going counter clockwise. Fun granite slab section on east side of loop. Clockwise would make a slightly less technical climb and put the slab section downhill.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
