“Rolling fire road that drops into single/doubletrack.”

— G. Smith
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

This is a rolling fire road that drops into rocky single/doubletrack and crosses the creek a few times. Though it begins as a fire road, and is fairly wide in many places, there are some steep climbs/descents and a few obstacles that make it a more intermediate trail. The trail is blazed with purple.

Love the creek crossings. Definitely deeper than expected in spots but rode through all of them.
