Loved it! So much fun, but bring a bell to warn hikers as you wind across the crest and down the switchbacks (most were *not* expecting to see bikers on this trail)

Yeah, one of the best trails in both of those two parks.

Super fun descent with some tight switchbacks. Worth the grind to the top
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
