“A graded fire road with views east to Tiburon as you gain elevation.”

— Bob Gardner
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Description

From the trailhead, the climb starts gradual enough but continues without a break until the top of the ridge. There are some nice views to the east over Marin City to Tiburon about half-way up. The road is well-maintained with no obstacles other than gravity.

Like it's connection Bobcat this is not a trail. It is a 8' wide' road. Just fine for the gravel bike set, but far from a mountain bike trail. Jan 25, 2018
