This is a great little bit of singletrack that winds through the scrub oak and has a nice gradual grade. A few rooty spots, but mostly buff until you get to the stick pile overlook that provides a great view of Cascade Mountain. It drops a bit passes through a nice meadow that is popular for short backpacking camps. Once you are out of the WMA, the trail starts to get steep and loose, and is great fun on a bike going down, but narrow and difficult to pedal going up.
