      There's no double black features on this trail, it's just very consistently rocky most of the way.

      Often used uphill, but also a decent downhill. Certainly not as good as most of the other descent options off Calico, but worth doing if you enjoy a good smash every now and then.

      Difficult as an uphill for the mountain bike but scenic at the top as a link-up to Calico. Very loose, rocky and steep in parts.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
