      Clockwise has a fun decent at the beginning with a longer gradual climb out in the middle, a fun short flow through the pines and a fairly level finish.

      Counterclockwise starts fairly flat with a longish gradual drop and a fairly long step climb out.

      I prefer clockwise but I switch it up occasionally.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
