        Rode uphill from GERP to get to the Canoe Hills. Steep and very rocky near the top. I had to hoof it a bit.

        Rode this as a downhill on 9/18/18. Top 3/4-mile is extremely loose and rocky, almost unride-able. It does improve as you move downhill.

        We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
