Relatively flat from the eastern cul-de-sac under the highway. Look for a bipass on the right at the bottom of the short, steep climb to avoid that climb. Ends at a second cul-de-sac.
Access Info
Neither cul-de-sac is accessible by car. A rider must enter from either the Rams Gulch trail or at the western cul-de-sac that is a continuation of trails into and out of Skytop quarry.
This trail is unsanctioned.
