Rough dirt road that follows ridgeline up and down, with gorgeous views of the Bay Area. Watch for cows, off-lease dogs, hikers, and perhaps a rare horse. Soil tends to be dry and loose, with some ruts, so use caution on downhills. The north end of this trail has a couple of very steep sections, which many riders will have to walk.
