Description

This trail is mostly easy with an intermediate section that is steeper with tight switchbacks near the end that connects to South Cut. The trail runs from smooth hard-pack to rocky to loose. Ride east until you reach a 4-way intersection. From there, ride south (right) to the South Cut.

It's a good way to navigate around the trail system.

Pretty tough climb near the top. Small rock step ups. Stuck my wheel trying to hop up and went OTB.
