“A great trail in either direction - either a long climb or long descent. ”

Description [Suggest Changes]

Monument is a great trail to ride in either direction - from top or bottom. Coming from the bottom, you're in for a long climb. Coming from the top, you're in for a great descent.

It's not a very difficult trail from either direction and it's enjoyable for riders of almost all levels. I wouldn't recommend bringing a first time rider on this trail as it can get discouraging going up and a bit sketchy coming down because of loose stones.
