      This trail should definitely be rated as a green trail. It was basically a dirt road the whole way and does not pose a challenge at all to experienced or novice riders alike. If you are wanting an easy, mellow ride this is the one. If you want anything more advanced, try the Temi-po-op trail nearby

      All the blue trails in this area are really full-on green trails fyi.

      Upper, Lower Graveyard and Cholla is an awesome beginner trail or a great warm up prior to riding Barrel Roll Trails. The trail is great in either direction. For those that would like a little more technical section I'd suggest riding Tempi-po-op Trail as an out and back.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
