Smooth, quick switchback descent, or slightly more technical climb. Slippery in the wet with a few tree roots. Climb to begin the easy loop and access the upper valley.

Head straight down from the trailhead with the prominent sponsor board on your right.
Advanced riders may prefer to descend Download as a shortcut to the bottom of the valley.
