    BLM California - Fort Ord National Monument

From the nice view point on the top, this trail drops a bit steep at first through the manzanita. It can be a bit rutted but is a fun quick ride down to the road. It levels out and carves a bit through the bushes.

Access Info

Access via Hennekens Ranch Rd heading SW OR Trail 67 heading NE.
