This trail is marked as an expert by the resort, but it is more of an intermediate downhill, and maybe an expert climb. There are a few rock gardens and few steep turns, but it is mostly intermediate climb. It starts out very easy, and slowly gets more and more difficult until there are a few difficult climbing spots. But if you want to loop it in with Meander as an XC route, I would call this downhill intermediate.
