TRAIL REVIEWS review this trail

This trail is somewhat rough and requires a little more commitment than just Coyote or Chamisoso. Some of the entrances/exits from the drainages are loose and steep and may cause intermediates to dismount. What makes it unique and interesting is it's position on the steep north slope of Cedro Peak. Since this area doesn't dry out as fast, the woods are thicker and darker, making this a good choice on a sunny day. It can also be used to add mileage and some more climbing if you've got the legs and the lungs for it. It's probably not the best trail in the area, but it's a nice addition to the avalailable variety. It's also closed to motos.
