Really fun trail that has a little bit of everything on it. Fast and flowy, exposure, and technical rocky sections. There's one hike a bike, but everything else is rideable. Follows the ridge for half of the trail, and this is where you get some exposure. The views area amazing though. The descent from the ridge back to the trail head if ridden west to east is moderately technical and rocky or can be a tough climb riding east to west. Trail can be ridden either direction, but expect some climbing both ways. Good as a stand alone ride or combine with any of the other trails to get some more miles in.

       If the drop in at the top goes, it’s double black. The rest is more like blue (downhill at least)
