Description
This is a fairly technical ride. I would rate it 8/10 in technicality, but a 6/10 in aerobic difficulty because its so short. Super fun ride. Trail takes up up to a rim that overlooks the bearclaw poppy trail.

Review: While short and sporting little overall elevation change, this is one tough cookie. The initial climb will get your heart rate up,then the tech fest begins. There are lots of quick, sharp moves required and some real challenges along the way. This one is constantly abusive or entertaining depending on your point of view. CCW is definitely best as you get to climb the less interesting doubletrack and scream down some excellent singletrack. There is one major roller along the way which will spook most riders, but it's not as bad as it looks. This ride is a great addition to the St George lineup and very close to town for easy access (once you find the trailhead, which isn't exactly straightforward).

Review: Many tech moves climbing and descending the slope. Almost no flat ground on the 6 miles of trail. It will work you for it length. Little shade in the trails center in a rock alcove. Trail climbs the hill and not well marked at that point. Undiscovered GEM!
