I've seen dirt bikes being walked up and down this in places. Can get really rutted, and popular with the hard core MX riders up there. Going downhill on this trail can be fun if you like it really steep and rowdy and you got the bike for it.

      The last mile or so is really fun, but the trail overall is not as hard as previous comments make it seem. I'm not sure I'd even rate it a double black trail. Also, there are a few tough climbs, which sucks considering the amount of climbing needed just to get to the trail.

      This is a moto trail and is very steep and loose. Would not recommend riding this trail. The effort to get to the top is not worth the decent.

      Very steep enduro DH type trail. Dirt Bikers help maintain this trail. This trail probably Would be overgrown and barely useable with dirt bike usage

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
