having done total recall, snow drift, and bacon strip, I can safely say this is one of the worst climbs on peavine. Yes it's technical and yes a skilled rider will enjoy this trail, but the dirt is so depressed that the rocks jut up to your knees in many places. most of the technical bits are not avoidable, and the trail itself is very skinny. if you don't choose your line perfectly, with the perfect pedal cadence, you will get a ton of pedal strikes and possibly some broken toes. steel-toed shoes recommended.
I recommend climbing keystone instead, unless you know what you're doing.

Probably the best intermediate climb on Peavine. Great mix of short ramps and flatter short tech bits.

Good climb for reaching the UNR DH or a great tech descent for beginners
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
