Description

While this trail doesn't offer anything technical, it is an effective 1000 foot climb to connects the "upper trails" with Happy Valley. The surface of the road is loose gravel, which makes climbing a bit of a churn at times. This is a great ride if the trails are overly soggy or if you just want a longish ride through the woods.

There is nice scenery along the way with mountain views, lake views, and plenty of wildlife.
