Description

This two-mile connector stretches between Joe Johnston and Sendero Balcones. The trail features an impressive ascent of between 8 and 9% grade towards the middle of the trail. The grade rises with a combination of large gravel covering the trail and 6 - 12" rock escarpments.

This can also be a great ride going in the opposite direction down the trail.

This one is a doozy to do uphill. Definitely not intermediate if done uphill, many obstacles are 12" or higher with no workaround.
