Description

This is a steep climb that connects the Hawes Trail down below to the Upper/Lower Gidro trails above. Many will have to hike a bike for some of the climb. Fun descent, and there is an optional steep roller near the connection to the Hawes Trail if you look for it.

Great views up top, especially if you continue the climb up to the top of Upper Gidro Trail where it connects to GOAT Trail.
