Rode it CCW, still good in that direction aside from a couple brief steep hikes. Some sandy parts, trail can be hard to follow a couple times; keep eyes peeled for path marked by small rocks. Great rocky techie sections, some cliff-like exposure. Rustic, old school feel. Convenient to primitive/rough camping area in the western side of the trail system. Solid adventure
