Sorry to bring back my first post but what kind of difficulty level is it to get there. I picked up my RMDRA map today (thanks timbruce) anyway was thinking of going out riding this weekend and tackling it.

I'd say intermediate if you ride it from south to north, beyond intermediate if you ride it north to south. Not sure of your skill level but if you're just looking for cool views try riding swanys 1990. Really nice lookout spot when you get up on the ridge. Then you can ride it back down.
I think the spot in that video isn't too hard to get to and you could turn around before the hard sections but it would be a longer ride to get there.

Thank you for your reply well I would say I'm a novice rider only got my bike last year. I don't care if it a hard ride I would prefer just to throw myself in and learn than hold back and say I can't do it. Is it ok to do by yourself I don't have any riding friends normally just go out for a few hours a week on my own.

I don't think it's a good idea for anyone to ride alone. I am riding Sunday if you want to join. I'm not going to swanys this time but there will be some cool trails for sure. Send me a PM if you want.
