The entrance to Dharma is located across the road from the north side of the ranger station parking lot. The trail begins right next to the green gate with the stop sign on it.

As you ride, you'll traverse some rocky and boulder strewn ridge lines behind the A-frame ranger station. The trail surface is rooty throughout, and riders should be on the lookout for a few rock gardens that occasionally interrupt the flow of the trail.

Riders will intersect the double track multi-use hike/bike/horse a couple of times, so be careful when entering and exiting this often busy track.
