Description
This trail is another steep doubletrack trail in SOMO, with great views along the ridge in multiple spots. Once you gain the ridge, however, the trail begins to share a paved road with the Pine Mountain Estates development. This road section isn't too bad though as it feels more like a greenway with good views and nice houses.
