Description

This steeper doubletrack begins at the intersection with the Tower Road and Loadstone Road Doubletrack and climbs through the trees accessing Terminus-Lodestone Gully, Hang Ten, and Escalator. Most riders will prefer to climb up the singletrack Escalator where possible. The grade continues to steepen so consider reaching the top of Richmond Hill by Oliver Road and Heaton Road.
