"Sober Up" is a challenging climb. Not quite mid way up you will encounter a small downhill section that puts you up and over a sweet little rock face. Use the gained momentum here to get you up and around the next section of the climbing. The climb gets steeper and increasingly difficult near the end, but once you get to the top, your reward awaits if you're up to the challenge of "On the Rocks". Long story short, if you don't know it, walk it first. "On the Rocks is a solid black diamond with big rocks and sweet drops.

This trail is unsanctioned.
