 Very rough and not a well marked trail. Little evidence of bike traffic. Hard to follow trail at times. Lower section is basically a stream bed.

      Not fun times, did it backwards to cut through and regretted it. Steep, lots of loose chunky rock, maybe fun downhill but also realized it’s an unsanctioned trail.

      Not feel like a bike trail. Basically a creek. Try to avoid

      Loose and much better downhill. Had to get off and hike in a couple sections - pretty muddy when I went.
