Just there today. Well near it, I saw it. I have ridden it before. Starts at the first switchback on Glendora Mtn. Rd., climbs the riverbed for a mile or two, then heads back south to the ridge, then north again to GMR about 5 miles climb. There is the mystic single track also when you get to the ridge as a loop option but you have to climb back up to your car if you parked by the trail head.

I haven't rode it in a year or more, but I'd like to give it a go again.

It's a great trail, but I haven't been there since earlier this year, so I don't know the condition. It used to be more like a fire road, but because of over growth its more like a ST, once you get past the creek crossings.

Here are some pix.
