The first section from Moss Lake to Sis & Bubb lakes is mostly easy to moderate single track. However, the final section below the Sis - Bubb Bridge, the trail becomes significantly more difficult with technical rock sections and a very steep, technical drop down to Rt 28 parking lot. This final section is for experienced riders only.
