I'll be in Vegas in a week and will be bringing the bike with me, I will check this place out. Rode Vegas in the past. Beautiful but the terrain is tough on the bike and body, everything wants to kill you....including the plants and vegetation!
Nice video. Thank you! Good to see others also struggling to find the trails in our neighborhood ;) Aside from the big drop this looks like a fun and relatively easy trail though, would you say?
I think it deserves a double black or more if you plan to do the drop. Other wise it would be a harder single black. The big drop is gnarly and very high consequence with a small landing and a short chunky run in. The rest of the trail is steep and loose. TH-cam doesn’t show it of course. In less than .5 of a mile you will drop 450 feet. No super difficult features but steep, loose and thin. Easy for some and dangerous for others. Fun but short. I haven’t been up there since the video so feel free to comment on the current state if you go.
@@justthetrailmtb Yea that drop is a hard pass for me - lol. Maybe on some packed dirt, but not on these loose gravel lines by rocks. My leg is still healing from last week's wreck coming down Bipolar ;) Do you have a course that includes this trail you recommend on Trailforks? I'll give it a try when it gets colder and I can take my time finding the way! Thank you!
The quick way is to go up cleod 9 to secret menu and take hold fast. Hold fast is one of the more difficult single blacks in Las Vegas , but the first part to get to hold tight is less difficult. Then after hold tight you can take cleod 9 down to bottom. :)
I would agree. Single black. The GoPro effect makes it look not steep. It drops 450ft in .06 of a mile. It’s also only about 6-9” wide. Which is a factor in determining a trail Rating. 👍
Impressed by your gap jumps. More than I can do.
Great video again! This trail looks beautiful

Where is this
Da burbs. Check Trailforks map in description.
@@justthetrailmtb thanks for nothing
Would have been super easy to say state and city but ok 👌
@@lifebehindbarsonemansstory2189 sorry. My channel is all Las Vegas Nevada.
Besides the drop the trail looks more like a single black, it doesn’t look very steep at all

Rating. 👍
450ft drop is 0.6 miles sounds pretty steep.
