Perfect condition. Watch for hikers on blind corners riding in either direction.

Don't cut the switchbacks if you are hiking or running... duh. If you are riding down... ride, don't slide - saw some evidence of that.

      This is an unmarked trail that starts with a hike abike and only gets worse. It is a hiking trail only, at least for the first 1/2 mile or so. And maybe rideable in spots as a double black but in no way is this a blue. We did not enjoy it and turned back after half a mile. For us it was dangerous. Not good. This trail really shouldn’t be listed as it is because the start of it at least is super bad unridable uphill and turns into a double black downhill from there. If it mellows out then maybe they should segment it but we never should have been led to believe this was in our wheelhouse as a blue.

      If you are climbing up the Cleator Road, and intend to link this up to get up to Double Black, ride the Fragrance Lake loop, and avoid the full Two Dollar- it will climb up and along a cliff with many hiking sections, and waste your time. It was cool to see- kind of an adventure- but I wouldn’t do it again. If have time constraints, better to pedal up from the lost lake parking lot and just be done with it.

      We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
