Looking north on the trail. There are a lot of switch-backs on those
hills!
Puttin' around the rocks.

Lake Cle Elum from the top.
This is a tight, low-speed, trail that is BEAUTIFUL!
Clearing away some of the rocks would make this safer.
Right now, its best to ride the trail from north to south. Please
