      Honestly an awesome trail. Smooth and fast single track. If you’re looking gnarly stuff not it. Bring the down country or trail bike and let it fly

      Mostly boring, probably better to try anything else if you can only ride a day or two in the area.

      Rode from Earthquake Fault to top today June 12, ‘26. No snow issues. Trail dry and surprisingly loose for early June. Fun climb except for the steep extremely loose climb of about 50 yards. Totally unrideable. Not sure why there isn’t a switchback climb go around. Otherwise a great trail.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
