Ride in RainYes
This is one of the ways to traverse the hill and get from the north side to the south side. It crosses a flow trail so keep a head up at that point. Easy trail and connects the Three pigs to Oly and Bottle Opener. Kaiser flows well in both directions and will keep you on your toes - one of Galbraith's original single tracks.
