Land OwnerCleveland National Forest
This trail is rarely ridden, but can be taken in either direction. The majority of the trail is very mellow and smooth - the real challenge is the lower section - northern end - within sight of the Escondido Ravine Road. This section is quite steep and has big, crank bashing/pedal snatching rocks scattered haphazardly along it. The upper southern section section is easy riding.
