The trails at Beacon Hill and Camp Sekani utilize areas of public and private property. Respect boundaries and stay on the trails so that these locations continue to be great areas to bike in Spokane.

Description

This is the most direct climbing route on the "Ezzy" side of Beacon Hill, and it's also the steepest! The access road isn't very interesting but provides a very good workout for those who want to challenge the dirt and rock. The road could be descended, but with so many better singletrack options, why would you?
