An awesome rip off the Monarch Crest Trail. Starts out with some deep roots and little stream crossings. The top has the tendency to keep moisture as it is deep in the forest. The big roots create seriously rowdy riding and even a wheel trap if you don't lean back. The terrain slowly changes to a bit more sun exposure which dries out the trail and more rocks, and then more rocks, big and embedded in some spots. The middle flattens out just a bit and even gets a bit peddaly for a short section before the speed really picks up for the bottom third. Just when the trail appears to get tame, you drop down a fast rocky section and keep ripping.
This trail can be shuttled but includes a mild and easy climb on the Monarch Crest from the saddle. Not great to spin up the pavement back to the top as the road shoulder goes to zero for the last few miles.
