VERY challenging trail (expect to walk some of it), but the amazing views at the top, and the ride down make it totally worth it. NOTE: the entrance fee is $6 now.

This trail rocks...there are plenty of surrounding trails to get warmed up on...you will need it before Pass Mountain.

I fractured my right rib because I was riding so fast due to my excitment until... you know. Good thing I was wearing my helmet and bike gloves for this trial. But please ride this trail very carefully!

I rode the trail counterclockwise this makes the climb about two miles long, it is steep and technical. Once at the pass it is about five miles of mosltly downhill with alot of smooth fast sections, however the trail is narrow so be careful. Be careful of hikers and horses due to blind corners. If the trail is ridden clockwise the downhill from the pass is slow steep and pretty dangerous, not for begineers.
