Great OAB from the Cascade Falls lot ... tons of smooth climbing and fast ripping down both directions. Be mindful of all season hikers, trail is visible for quite a ways at all sections but due to speeds non-bicycle enthusiasts could easily be in harms way.

Access Info

Either pedal in from Twin Lakes via the summit trails down or from Cascade Lake
