When it says rock garden, it means the entire trail. I accidentally got on this after climbing benson grade and trying to head over "freak of nature" it was supposed to be my last run of the day, and I thought it was going to be all downhill. But I accidentally got on this trail and it is intense. Don’t do this if you’re tired. Only do this if you want some real gnarly uphill downhill, uphill downhill, uphill downhill uphill downhill uphill downhill, uphill downhill, crusty, slow, moving toothy af trail. I still kind of enjoyed it. It had some interesting puzzles and technical sections that I was able to ride and they were fun. But I’m pretty sure FK a stand for f*cka. I still kind of enjoyed it.
