“A grueling, barren, ridgetop ride on a wide, dirt road in the sun.”

Description

The eastern third of this trail is foreign to me, so if anyone can add a description please use the "Improve this trail" section.

As for the western 2/3rds, well, let's just say I'm not a fan. There are so many false peaks that you begin to wonder if you're going in circles! The road is wide, and has no technical features at all. If the air is clear the views are great, but the land is very barren, mostly dry grasses.

Look for a few descending trails to the north along the way: Bovinian Delight, Little Canyon, Easy Street, and Diemer Trail.
