This is a bi-directional, old-school trail. It is mostly used as a climb to moose-bones. Most of the turns have no-directional berms. There are shaded pine tree groves and lots of sharp rocks. The trail opens up just for a bit at the dirt road, then continues down to Midmountain.

Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.

24-30” wide. On camber. No exposure. Tight switch-backs; expect multipoint turns. Sudden steep grunts with loose kitty litter. A good time? Maybe. But better than team big bear.

There is a single obstacle of note:
A large “ bomb hole” (I think a former mineshaft) is located after the 4th switchback going uphill. It is narrow, at roughly 30 inches wide and descend sharply about 6 feet before rising roughly 4 feet. It is very doable on a narrower Adaptive bike. Consider a spotter if you have a wider bike, but the feature has limited spotting potential and has some fairly significant consequence.

Warning - riding down you may struggle to get through “ the bomb hole” on (located after the second downhill switchback after boulder and TDSconvergence ) as it is quite steep to get out of going downhill. My recommendation is to off-road it through the light gradient downhill if you need to avoid the obstacle.
