From the trail head, be ready to climb. It's just over a 7 mile climb to the turnaround point at the top. The climb is steep in sections with roots and some impressive rocks. There are also a few creek crossings. After turning around, the trail is a screaming downhill with some great natural flow. Courtesy of Singletracks.com
