A less grueling climb than Climbmax with a fun flowing downhill. The switchbacks at the bottom of the hill have no berms and so need to be taken more slowly than you might want given the loose nature of the dirt.
Access Info
Hang a left at the top of the steps (you can ride up them) and then proceed up a gentle climb with a few switchbacks and one good dip roll before topping out on the ridge and taking the downhill.
