Description

This trail flows along the ridge of the mountain. Start your ride with a steep climb to get onto the ridge and from there this trail will give you a steady decline with some amazing views along the way. The tail includes a heart attack hill which we recommend going down instead of up. At the very end, this trail turns into singletrack downhill which will wind you through groves of poison oak. Be careful not to brush up against it!
