“A steep doubletrack climb below Los Griegos ending with views of Redondo and the Valle Grande.”

Description
At mile 2.5 the road enters the Las Conchas Fire scar and levels out for the last mile and a half. The good news is that the missing trees offer great views to the north of Redondo Peak and the Valle Grande and Las Conchas peak to the East.
The road intersects with FR 271 at the top, leading to other return routes or turn around and enjoy a fast trip back downhill. If you check the satellite photo you'll see an even steeper downhill shortcut if you want some technical downhill.
