      The lower section is smooth. Past centipede some sections are hike-a-bike.

      I would consider this a downhill route the 2nd half down. I would not recommend starting the climb from leaving as marked per trail forks. Lots of drops abs large rocks to climb.

      If you’re going label boulder ridge as a double black then this should be changed to a blue.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
