      If nothing else, you'll remember the tunnel under the highway! Unless you can do limbo on a bike, it's a long squatted walk under the highway (take the right tunnel if headed north, the left ends at a tree blocking the exit). The switchbacks are pretty nice and ridable.

      Also, don't let trail name scare you: there's no serious ledges you can fall off of.

      A fun ST that winds up the hill from the underpass towards Sunset
