This ridge is more rugged than the other two ridges. It's mostly a hike-a-bike up and then has an advanced all-mountain feel coming down. This line is my preferred line coming down. If you keep your momentum you can charge up pretty much all the climbs and the descents are steep and tricky. It doesn't get much use though so is sometimes a bit overgrown.
