One of the most enjoyable green circle trails I've ridden. While you won't get technical, rocks or big jumps, you will get a long, flowy fast trail. A good climb and an enjoyable decent. Multi-use trail so be courteous to other trail users. Remember to yield to uphill riders. In the Spring the creek flows so you will probably get wet.
