Scenic and fun trail in both directions. As a descent, it is fast with a few intermediate rooty sections and switchbacks. Be careful because it because it is a popular hiking trail too. As a climb, it is a grunt but rideable; can connect it to the also great Bear Wallow descent which will take you back down to the Winsor.
