Trail Overview

Its namesake is no joke; as you crest the saddle, the wind rips around you. The reward is killer views on either side of the run. The southern section has a long steep grade that is loose in sections. Lower gears are encouraged on your downhill to save brakes. Picture included of one Buick who was not so lucky. There are some dispersed camping spots around and 3 bars of 3g Verizon cell service.
