great challenge, lots of uphills, but great downhill runs well worth the work. Did it in mid-October with leaves on ground and lots of mud.

the trail poses no significant up/down hills like powerline, and it does not require 'advanced' skills, and it's definately not 2000' vertical. look at a topo..

spencer loop is not 2000 vert unless you ride it 8 or 9 times, who posts this crap?

It's a great, challenging, and FUN ride. Wouldn't call it advanced, though. Watch out for all the pedestrians and their unleashed dogs (oh, and the moose).
