Description

This is a great fireroad climb with nice views of the surround canyon and neighborhoods and allows you to access several trails near the Nike site and also off of the dirt section of Mulholland.

There are also several sections of steep singletrack that criss cross the fireroad, allowing you to get your downhill fix.
