1.5 hr
Upon arriving at the trail, there is an immediate increase in pitch, followed by relentless climbing that gets steeper and steeper until mercifully ending at the top of Lakeview Chair at Alpine Meadows Ski Area. The preferred descent follows the same route back down for a high speed, and sometimes technical, downhill.
This was once a road, but now feels more like singletrack.
