Yeah, I'm not very good at rating trails for folks. Except for my daughters who don't know any better, no one I've ridden with has agreed with my trail assessment. I guess that comes from riding only the stuff around here. My apologies for putting your through terror! I'd rate this trail as harder than Rampart by a notch or two (out of how many? Who knows!), but (I think) it doesn't have the drop off issue -- though who knows, I'd not have said Rampart has a drop off issue either, so what do I know?). For the record, I've taken trails with drop off issues, and usually end up LCGing them. Back to the trail though. Keep in mind this is 20 yards of the trail, and a nice pastoral part at that. Hopefully my road picking skills are a better match! Grin.
