Mostly a hiking trail but like most of the trails on Fromme, can be ridden. The trail is used to connect various trails on Fromme, or as a cross-mountain transport.

Much harder than expected and quite challenging to ride east to west. Quite technical.
[Reply]

This is the hardest blue trail I’ve ever ridden. Especially east to west; I had to push my bike.
[Reply]

Yeah, that was the blackest blue I've ever ridden. However, I had a great time rolling those steps and re enforced stone descents back to parking. Great trail in its own right.
[Reply]

This trail is exceptionally technical with massive uphill rock gardens, steep stairs, and not much fun for me as an intermediate rider
[Reply]

Took the trail to go back to the parking lot after Espresso and I can safely say that this trail is significantly harder. Super steep rocky climbs lead to super steep rocky descents. The descents are really fun though.
