did this clockwise from trailhead. 2hrs up to first junction at approx 2.7miles.   50/50 pushing and pedaling.  it's a very tough climb. no view at first junction, you gotta go to top of muller to get the amazing views. down from muller continuing clockwise is nice and smooth and fast. track is narrow and loose in places....let some air out of your tires for the ride down. a nice ride but wouldn't drive all the way out here just to do this ride. the downhill is fun in a traditional xc sense but a bit boring compared to OFG at Tiger and other more technical downhills. but if your here for Crescent lake, or another activity, then bring the bike too and do this loop too. .
