      I totally agree with the comment below. It’s not a fun trail, not even a fun hike-a-bike. It’s not a true trail, extremely rocky, very rutted in sections, and the “trail” disappears in the rockiest section.

      This trail is so loose and rocky that is virtually unrideable, in any direction. No amount of trail maintenance could make it better.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
