It’s short but fun. I would categorize it as a good trail for a beginner who is ready to consider him or herself an intermediate. It has good flow, fun rock features, and lots of little well-crafted climbs that keep it interesting. For an advanced rider looking for a quick after-work or rest day ride, it’s just right. Do the loop both ways to get about 8 miles and 600’ of climbing.
