Description

Steep switchbacks over rocky and sandy terrain. Getting here is a battle. Getting down is an epic. A terrain oddity, why does it feel harder to go downhill than it does to go up? Something you must experience for yourself.

Sandy, washed out with sections of baseball sized cobbles. Would highly not recommend.
