Riders beware, here hides bobcats, slippery rock and avalanches galore. It is a treacherous ride, however can be a beautiful one. During the winter snow and ice slam the mountain, sometimes making it almost impassable. But the other three seasons, it is gorgeous when one makes it to the peak and is able to see miles around. There are a few sheltered spots just in case horse and rider are stuck, but they are far and few in between.
