Description

This is more an intermediate+ trail with a lot of quick, steep drops and climbs passing through gullies, with a couple that require advanced gear planning in order to clean the climbs. Everything is cleanable though. Octopus has some hard pack mixed in with packed sandier sections. If you have a knack for finding pinch flats, watch out for stem stubs on this trail.
