      Physically this is an easy trail with little climbing, BUT technically it should be rated blue. I see too many beginner bikers on this trail terrified. It is narrow, patches of rocks with a couple steep rollers. Trailsfork - who decides these ratings?

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
