Go down the fire road from gate 9 into a single track trail. Follow that single track trail all the way up and over the knoll. There will be a sandy rocky single track downhill. Follow that out untill you hit a fireroad. When u hit the fire road take a right so u desend down 500 feet untill there is a split up. Take the single track and that will take u all the way up on top pf rattlesnake. Follow rattlesnake down into a single track in tall grass. This will be long mustard plants if u go in the spring. When u go to the end u will meet up with a fire road. Take a right and follow that until it takes u up to where it intersects with another fire road. DONT GO UP and head down until u see a trail going to the left. This should be "i think i can". Take that fire road all the way up. It is 1.3 miles up. After getting all the way up keep on going up in a rightward direction.You will go up and sown 3 hills before u meet with a single track called fence line. Take fence line all the way to the same fire road that took u to rattle snake and jsut go back the way u came. If u want to bail out and not take a brutal technical uphill at the end u can end witha easy fire road on the right of the singletrack. This will also take u back to gate 9. Hope u will enjoy the ride.
