“A steep, rocky, technically difficult downhill or nearly impossible climb (hike-a-bike).”

— Austin Jurgensmeyer

Overview

Features: -none-
Dogs: Leashed

Description

This short section is one of the harder technical challenges in Palmer. Rocky, steep, and challenging, there are several tough switchbacks and interesting/difficult rock drops. Climbing would be almost impossible for all but the best, but it's a short hike-a-bike to access Templeton Trail from the east.
