This could be an easy intermediate trail if not for a difficult creek crossing. You'll cross two bridges here - one easy enough. The second is deteriorated and you'll need to pay very careful attention to where you put your wheels. And as soon as you cross the bridge, you're climbing up. This climb will continue throughout the trail, over rock obstacles and more and more stretches of steepness. The climb down is even trickier - or you can take Rollins Pass Road down.
