Lots of climbing but a fun reward if ridden as Rx. The Cliff edge looks worse than actually is. If you want climbing training, this is your trail. 15mi

Significant sand on multiple parts of the trail. Not good for big/long bikes.

So loose up the hog back, it was all but unrideable. If anyone considers this less than a black diamond trail, they’re kidding themselves.
