Trail Overview

The start of the trail is through private land. Once you come out of private land, about 0.5 miles, there is a rutted section then a rock obstacle. After that, the trail steadily climbs towards the top, with a lot of loose rock. About 0.25 miles from the top, the road turns into a shelf road, and at the end of the road, there is a locked gate. There is not much room to turn around at the gate.

Dry tail. A lot of loose rock and some gradient changes especially the second half of the trail. I can see water causing the tail to become more technical. I tasted it a 5/10 but could be a 4/10. Just need the right rig and patience crawling.
