The climb is pretty easy as you head south towards the summit. Once you reach the summit the trail gets pretty rocky and washed out. Coming up from the south hard through the switch backs. Maybe not a black diamond, but more difficult then most the trails that surround it.

 A little overgrown but rideable. Not anywhere close to a black trail, just a little bit of chunk. XC trail with decent views at the top.
