Mount Just Outstanding , how about Just Outstanding In The Rain. Oh, I know, it describes my cycling skills, yea that s it. The top part of the ride is all single track through the forest and undeniably pristine flora. There are a few sections of the trail that go through very dense trees. So dense in fact that it is a tunnel.
Local knowledge is the only way to stay on the route.
The route crisscrosses dirt roads in a few places that to the unsavvey traveler can be confusing. As this was the first time that I did this ride it seemed like a long trail, it s divided into sections by the aforementioned dirt roads which make for good pausing points to regroup. A sight that you have to see for yourself is the manzanita section. As the route descends it comes to the manzanita grove. The trail leads trough another tunnel, this time it s trough manzanitas.
