Most of this is doubletrack similar to the other ski trails in the area, but it has longer sections of loose rock than the others. Between the rocks and the length of the climb I'd rate it a blue, until the top quarter mile where it suddenly becomes black. I left my bike there and tried walking up to the waterfall, but even walking the top part was difficult in cycling shoes.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
