      When climbing Section Two - the first portion is great up to the road crossing. The rest of Section Two above the road is mostly hike a bike grade unless you're superman. Suggest that once at the road turn right and continue climbing on Rick's Rocks or stay left on the road and just climb the road.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
