Solid, gradual climbs give way to big downhills. Sit in a low gear and crank away. Bike the whole thing from 706/Paradise Road, or park about 3 miles up at the Fish Creek parking area and start there. The entire road is closed to cars during the winter (usually November to May). But is open to hikers and bikers all year if the path is able to be traversed (ie no snow). As of September 2020, road is closed to cars starting at Fish Creek due to slides.
