The trail through Icebox Canyon is a fun climb or decent. This trail is probably the most challenging and technical of the trails on the lower part of the mountain. There are a handful of tight and steep switchbacks and a few steep, rocky, punchy climbs that make for solid challenges for most riders. There are a number of blind spots on the descent so be aware of hikers, especially on weekends.
