      Agree with Blue trail. Probably hard for beginners, not steep just lots of rocks, gotta pick the right lines and gears or you'll be walking half of it at least. For me, super fun before descending the big rock garden towards Deadman.

      Blue trail due to very chunky rocks. Not steep, but technical

      I would call this a blue trail as well. Due to how narrow and rocky some of the sections of this trail are. In my opinion, this trail is more difficult than many of the "blue" trails in this same area like Ponderosa or Caida Del Pino.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
