Trail is well cared for, even within the last week I noticed someone came with a shovel to add some drainage channels, also raised and reinforced some berms. A couple dicey spots you might consider walking your bike. It's a healthy climb uphill and a blast to ride back to the bottom. Stunning views.

minus the first bit, super consistent climbing trail. didn’t take it down but looks like it could be fun in that direction too
ColoradoCruiser
Having ridden Nice Kitty over 20 times, I have to disagree with Salvids. Nice Kitty is most often ridden as a climb from the lower Buffalo Creek lot to the Colorado Trail. Fast climbers will do this 5.2 mile/1,050' climb in less in than 40 minutes, and the current KOM is under 28 minutes. If you descend Nice Kitty, expect 95% of the bike traffic to be going the opposite way.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
