Rocky, loose single track that begins at the top near some radio towers and may be difficult to follow at first. The descent begins with some technical rock sections that becomes more of a gravely bee-line steep, downhill.nnGrueling as a climb on a bike where roughly half of the trail is between 12 to 24% grade with a significant portion over 20%

We pushed our bikes up the trail for a different option to the top. It’s pretty steep and rocky loose at the top. A bit overgrown. Doesn’t...

 Very dry, not worth downhill riding IMO, great uphill access to lap the couch, Rainer and the Big Dipper.

 Straight down, steep, loose rock trail that needs to be worked in yet. Doesn't see much love.

      Is this the best way to climb up to the roads to get to the towers to lap the trails on the southern side of the system, parking at the south gate?

      Used as an uphill trail, not a great downhill. Great access to Rainer or the couch if you follow the road at the top and want to lap them faster
