Itinerary description
Huge climb... first doubletrack, then single track... then the singletrack closes more and more to a point you feel your are breaking through branches and bushes... "rompiendo monte" in a way. Hard. Long. Doable.
then ... just crazy downhill.... wonderful... lasting, long.... adrenalinic, ... I actually had to stop to rest my arms/hands at a point.. that long it was...
Got myself in the middle of a storm out there and up there... humbling. did not see another rider out there on Northern and was a suprised as car park was busy. Guess they all went to more typical bumps and turns trails. Car park was busy when I got back. The whole are is an MTB mecca type of atmosphere.
