Some erosion issues on the climb out, made it kinda brutal. Little hike a bike unless you're mega fit.

      This trail was a lot of fun. It’s certainly not a black diamond trail (as others noted before) but who cares… it’s a pristine forest and sweet trail system.

      Super fun and flowy single track trail Oregon style! I would consider this trail intermediate. Nothing technical! Insane greenery and big trees!

      I’d say more of a greenish blue but still super fun and cool woods. Definitely not a destination type trail but fun If you happen to be in the area
