Description

This nice section of trail roughly parallels FS Rd 106 and it's fast and fun. There's slightly more descending going from south to north. Either way, fast fun curves abound along with a couple of rock gardens and a few logs to ride over.

The worst thing about this trail is a short bit of forest service Rd to get to it, but the fun bits of trail are ultimately worth it.
