This trail actually has some pretty difficult rocks to negotiate in the middle. If you want a fast and easy return you can continue along the road and loop back around to the top. There is also a Dual Slalom return trail that goes straight up the hillside.
Adaptive Bike Info
aMTB Blue Rating: Intermediate features and steeper terrain.
A little bit narrow and exposed in spots. Use Sunrise Trail and Flow Return instead
