July 11, 2024 Parked inside the SP and started the ride. Road up is good and bad. Some very large potholes - clearly marked with white paint - rough pavement, and some short perfect areas. No issues climbing with slow speed but limiting on the descent. No traffic so no issues maneuvering all over the road for the best route. A sign at the bottom states "pavement ends 2.4 miles". This is not correct. The road is paved all the way. It does end at about mile 12 but pavement continues with a right turn, meandering for a bit, then up again to the "summit" - no signage - at mile 15.5, 4209ft gain The climb is an easy spin at mostly less than 8%. 1 short steep section at 20% followed by a longer 1 mile section at 12 to 17%. There is a 1 mile dh just after the burn scar area, then you turn right to continue on the paved road. A slow descent back to the SP. There is a nice, stout, 1 mile climb 12 to 17% in the park up to Vista Viewpoint on a perfect road - hors d' oeuvre or dessert !
