Description

This service road runs mostly alongside the powerline from the gate at the Open Space Access Rd on the south side to Huertas Creek on the north end. It's a straightforward graded road, but it punches straight up and down the fall line of the mesa, so it's kinda steep on both sides.

The very northern end drops down away from the electrical sub station into the Huertas arroyo. This is a rutted, cobbly mess. It's quite rideable both directions, but it can be bouncy and loose going down and strenuous coming up.
