Story:
There was 8 of us in our group and non of us had been to this trail before. We started of from the parking lot next to the baseball field. The first climb we had was to get to the trailhead, our heart rate must of jumped up pretty quickly, great warm-up of what's to come. Once we got going, it seemed like there would be a ton of uphill climbs. At one point during our ride, we had to decide if we wanted to climb towards Mt. Woodson or go around the lake. Our group split up and I went with the group that took the trail that goes around the lake. This trail had a lot of tricky downhill switchbacks, and a cool little wall ride. We ended up hiking the last parts of the trail to the summit. From that point we bike it down to the parking lot which took a couple of minutes. Tough trail for beginners that don't have the endurance to climb.
