Typical singletrack for the area. Winds nicely up and down. Some of the switchbacks are a bit steep and/or tight in spots. Much of the trail is sun exposed and it gets pretty hot and dry. The trail is mostly flat and easy singletrack. I am a bit reluctant to mark this as intermediate, but for a few sections mostly at the end.

It's so a good trail for out and back, even if the other end is closed.
